This is what I get on a fast AMD Dual Opteron box(Running Debian
Sarge/AMD64):

                                  8.1.4           HEAD
1000000 SELECT 1;               74,74,73        77,76,77
stats_command_string=1;         105,99,106      78,79,78
log_min_duration_statement=100  79,80,81        75,80,76
statement_timeout=100           78,79,78        75,79,77
all 3                           104,108,107     82,81,81

all values in seconds with 3 consecutive runs of one million "SELECT 1;"
queries. It takes about 48 seconds to run the same test without
stat-collection btw.
