Did you mean enable_sort = 'off' for 8.2.1?
I tried to set enable_sort = 'off' for both the
8.1.4 server and the 8.2.1 server.
Both servers used the same plan as Run 4 and Run 3 respectively.
There were of course some changes in the planner cost for the sort
steps, but the execution times was of course the same.
