performance issue during regular merge passes not only the 'final merge'

than about one free block per 'tape', hence no need for an efficient
method of keeping the free blocks sorted.  But given the later addition

work_mem worth of free blocks, which is not so small ... and for that
matter the number of tapes isn't necessarily small anymore either.  So
we'd better get rid of the assumption entirely.  Instead, I'm assuming
that the usage pattern will involve alternation between merge preread

  While playing with this patch under 8.1.2 at home I discovered a
  mistake in how I manually applied one of the hunks to fe-auth.c.
  Basically, the base code had changed and so the patch needed to be
  modified slightly.  This is because the code no longer either has a
  freeable pointer under 'name' or has 'name' as NULL.

  The attached patch correctly frees the string from pg_krb5_authname
  (where it had been strdup'd) if and only if pg_krb5_authname returned
  a string (as opposed to falling through and having name be set using
  name = pw->name;).  Also added a comment to this effect.
