In the course of 5567d12ce03, 356687bd8 and 317ffdfeaac, I changed BuildTupleHashTable[Ext]'s call to ExecBuildGroupingEqual to not pass in the parent node, but NULL. Which in turn prevents the tuple equality comparator from being JIT compiled. While that fixes bug #15486, it is not actually necessary after all of the above commits, as we don't re-build the comparator when using the new BuildTupleHashTableExt() interface (as the content of the hashtable are reset, but the TupleHashTable itself is not). Therefore re-allow jit compilation for callers that use BuildTupleHashTableExt with a separate context for "metadata" and content. As in the previous commit, there's ongoing work to make this easier to test to prevent such regressions in the future, but that infrastructure is not going to be backpatchable. The performance impact of not JIT compiling hashtable equality comparators can be substantial e.g. for aggregation queries that aggregate a lot of input rows to few output rows (when there are a lot of output groups, there will be fewer comparisons).

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/.
