Tom Lane dec10340d5 Improve initdb's query for generating default descriptions a little.
While poking into initdb's performance, I noticed that this query
wasn't being done very intelligently.  By forcing it to execute
obj_description() for each pg_proc/pg_operator join row, we were
essentially setting up a nestloop join to pg_description, which
is not a bright query plan when there are hundreds of outer rows.
Convert the check for a "deprecated" operator into a NOT EXISTS
so that it can be done as a hashed antijoin.  On my workstation
this reduces the time for this query from ~ 35ms to ~ 10ms.
Which is not a huge win, but it adds up over buildfarm runs.

In passing, insert forced query breaks (\n\n, in single-user mode)
after each SQL-query file that initdb sources, and after some
relatively new queries in setup_privileges().  This doesn't make
a lot of difference normally, but it will result in briefer, saner
error messages if anything goes wrong.

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/.
