Heikki Linnakangas 42f70cd9c3 Improve performance of tuple conversion map generation
Previously convert_tuples_by_name_map naively performed a search of each
outdesc column starting at the first column in indesc and searched each
indesc column until a match was found.  When partitioned tables had many
columns this could result in slow generation of the tuple conversion maps.
For INSERT and UPDATE statements that touched few rows, this could mean a
very large overhead indeed.

We can do a bit better with this loop.  It's quite likely that the columns
in partitioned tables and their partitions are in the same order, so it
makes sense to start searching for each column outer column at the inner
column position 1 after where the previous match was found (per idea from
Alexander Kuzmenkov). This makes the best case search O(N) instead of
O(N^2).  The worst case is still O(N^2), but it seems unlikely that would
happen.

Likewise, in the planner, make_inh_translation_list's search for the
matching column could often end up falling back on an O(N^2) type search.
This commit also improves that by first checking the column that follows
the previous match, instead of the column with the same attnum.  If we
fail to match here we fallback on the syscache's hashtable lookup.

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================

This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

	https://www.postgresql.org/download

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
https://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
