This replaces the existing binary search with two perfect hash functions for the composition and the decomposition in the backend code, at the cost of slightly-larger binaries there (35kB in libpgcommon_srv.a). Per the measurements done, this improves the speed of the recomposition and decomposition by up to 30~40 times for the NFC and NFKC conversions, while all other operations get at least 40% faster. This is not as "good" as what libicu has, but it closes the gap a lot as per the feedback from Daniel Verite. The decomposition table remains the same, getting used for the binary search in the frontend code, where we care more about the size of the libraries like libpq over performance as this gets involved only in code paths related to the SCRAM authentication. In consequence, note that the perfect hash function for the recomposition needs to use a new inverse lookup array back to to the existing decomposition table. The size of all frontend deliverables remains unchanged, even with --enable-debug, including libpq.

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/.
