Well, I could test the patch on a x86 machine with 4 sockets (64 cores), but
I wonder whether it makes sense at this point, as the patch really is not
correct (judging by what Andres says).

Additionally it's, for default pgbench, really mostly a bottlneck after
GetSnapshotData() is fixed. You can make it a problem much earlier if
you have index nested loops over a lot of rows.

[scratches head] So does this mean it's worth testing the patch on x86 or not, in it's current state? Or should we come up with another test case, exercising the nested loops?
