Sets the planner's assumption about the effective size of the
disk cache that is available to a single index scan. This is
disk cache that is available to a single query. This is
factored into estimates of the cost of using an index; a
higher value makes it more likely index scans will be used, a
lower value makes it more likely sequential scans will be
