When try to run the pgbench test, by default the cache-scan plan is not
chosen because of more cost. So I increased the cpu_index_tuple_cost to a
maximum value or by turning off index_scan, so that the plan can chose the
cache_scan as the least cost.

The configuration parameters changed during the test are,

shared_buffers - 2GB, cache_scan.num_blocks - 1024
wal_buffers - 16MB, checkpoint_segments - 255
checkpoint_timeout - 15 min, cpu_index_tuple_cost - 100000 or
enable_indexscan=off

Test procedure:
1. Initialize the database with pgbench with 75 scale factor.
2. Create the triggers on pgbench_accounts
3. Use a select query to load all the data into cache.
4. Run  a simple update pgbench test.

Plan details of pgbench simple update queries:

postgres=# explain update pgbench_accounts set abalance = abalance where
aid = 100000;
                                                QUERY PLAN
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 Update on pgbench_accounts  (cost=0.43..100008.44 rows=1 width=103)
   ->  Index Scan using pgbench_accounts_pkey on pgbench_accounts
 (cost=0.43..100008.44 rows=1 width=103)
         Index Cond: (aid = 100000)
 Planning time: 0.045 ms
(4 rows)

postgres=# explain select abalance from pgbench_accounts where aid = 100000;
                                     QUERY PLAN
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 Custom Scan (cache scan) on pgbench_accounts  (cost=0.00..99899.99 rows=1
width=4)
   Filter: (aid = 100000)
 Planning time: 0.042 ms
(3 rows)

I am observing a too much delay in performance results. The performance
test script is attached in the mail.
please let me know if you find any problem in the test.
