Robert Haas 9f03ca9151 Avoid copying index tuples when building an index.
The previous code, perhaps out of concern for avoid memory leaks, formed
the tuple in one memory context and then copied it to another memory
context.  However, this doesn't appear to be necessary, since
index_form_tuple and the functions it calls take precautions against
leaking memory.  In my testing, building the tuple directly inside the
sort context shaves several percent off the index build time.
Rearrange things so we do that.

Patch by me.  Review by Amit Kapila, Tom Lane, Andres Freund.

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:

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
