47c7365e79 Make pgbench -i emit only one-tenth as many status messages.
These days, even a wimpy system can insert 10000 tuples in the blink of
an eye, so there's no real need for this much verbosity.

Per complaint from Tatsuo Ishii.

afe1c51c9d Add pgbench option to add foreign key constraints to the standard scenario.
The option --foreign-keys, used at initialization time, will create foreign
key constraints for the columns that represent references to other tables'
primary keys.  This can help in benchmarking FK performance.

bb7520cc26 Make documentation of --help and --version options more consistent
Before, some places didn't document the short options (-? and -V),
some documented both, some documented nothing, and they were listed in
various orders.  Now this is hopefully more consistent and complete.

68cbb9f4e7 Modestly improve pgbench's checking for invalid ranges.
The old check against MAX_RANDOM_VALUE is clearly irrelevant since
getrand() no longer calls random().  Instead, check whether min and max
are close enough together to avoid an overflow inside getrand(), as
suggested by Tom Lane.  This is still somewhat silly, because we're
using atoi(), which doesn't check for overflow anyway and (at least on
my system) will cheerfully return 0 when given "4294967296".  But that's
a problem for another commit.

4af43ee3f1 Make pgbench use erand48() rather than random().
glibc renders random() thread-safe by wrapping a futex lock around it;
testing reveals that this limits the performance of pgbench on machines
with many CPU cores.  Rather than switching to random_r(), which is
only available on GNU systems and crashes unless you use undocumented
alchemy to initialize the random state properly, switch to our built-in
implementation of erand48(), which is both thread-safe and concurrent.

Since the list of reasons not to use the operating system's erand48()
is getting rather long, rename ours to pg_erand48() (and similarly
for our implementations of lrand48() and srand48()) and just always
use those.  We were already doing this on Cygwin anyway, and the
glibc implementation is not quite thread-safe, so pgbench wouldn't
be able to use that either.

Per discussion with Tom Lane.

00f76dbffa Get rid of a bunch of dubious error handling code in pgbench by just erroring
out immediately on any out-of-memory condition.  It's rather pointless to
imagine that pgbench will be able to continue usefully after a malloc
failure, and in any case there were a number of unchecked mallocs.

\setshell also does the same and sets the result to a variable.

6b45e3b7aa Arrange to generate different random sequences in the different child
processes of a pgbench run, when we are using -j > 1 and are emulating
threads via fork().  Otherwise the children all inherit the same random
sequence state and produce the same random-number sequence.

In the threaded case the different threads will share one RNG state, so
they will produce different subsets of one sequence, which is maybe more
correlated than a purist would like but will not be "the same".  So we
leave that case alone.

First noticed by Takahiro Itagaki, and is also part of the explanation
for the pgbench misbehavior recently reported by Jaime Casanova.

f82d4d5302 pgbench has #defines for number of branches, tellers, and accounts. There
are used to populate the tables with -i, but when running actual benchmark
it has values separately hard-coded in the query metacommands.  This patch
makes the metacommands obtain their values from the relevant #defines.

3da0dfb4b1 Multi-threaded version of pgbench contributed by ITAGAKI Takahiro,
reviewed by Greg Smith and Josh Williams.

Following is the proposal from ITAGAKI Takahiro:

Pgbench is a famous tool to measure postgres performance, but nowadays
it does not work well because it cannot use multiple CPUs. On the other
hand, postgres server can use CPUs very well, so the bottle-neck of
workload is *in pgbench*.

Multi-threading would be a solution. The attached patch adds -j
(number of jobs) option to pgbench. If the value N is greater than 1,
pgbench runs with N threads. Connections are equally-divided into
them (ex. -c64 -j4 => 4 threads with 16 connections each). It can
run on POSIX platforms with pthread and on Windows with win32 threads.

Here are results of multi-threaded pgbench runs on Fedora 11 with intel
core i7 (8 logical cores = 4 physical cores * HT). -j8 (8 threads) was
the best and the tps is 4.5 times of -j1, that is a traditional result.

$ pgbench -i -s10
$ pgbench -n -S -c64 -j1   =>  tps = 11600.158593
$ pgbench -n -S -c64 -j2   =>  tps = 17947.100954
$ pgbench -n -S -c64 -j4   =>  tps = 26571.124001
$ pgbench -n -S -c64 -j8   =>  tps = 52725.470403
$ pgbench -n -S -c64 -j16  =>  tps = 38976.675319
$ pgbench -n -S -c64 -j32  =>  tps = 28998.499601
$ pgbench -n -S -c64 -j64  =>  tps = 26701.877815

Is it acceptable to use pthread in contrib module?
If ok, I will add the patch to the next commitfest.

48caf91b66 Change pgbench to use the table names pgbench_accounts, pgbench_branches,
pgbench_history, and pgbench_tellers, rather than just accounts, branches,
history, and tellers.  This is to prevent accidental conflicts with real
application tables, as has been reported to happen at least once.  Also
remove the automatic "SET search_path = public" that it did at startup,
as this seems to restrict testing flexibility without actually buying much.
Per proposal by Joshua Drake and ensuing discussion.

investment seems so low.
