If we intend to generate a Memoize node on top of a path, we need cache keys of some sort. Currently we search for the cache keys in the parameterized clauses of the path as well as the lateral_vars of its parent. However, it turns out that this is not sufficient because there might be lateral references derived from PlaceHolderVars, which we fail to take into consideration. This oversight can cause us to miss opportunities to utilize the Memoize node. Moreover, in some plans, failing to recognize all the cache keys could result in performance regressions. This is because without identifying all the cache keys, we would need to purge the entire cache every time we get a new outer tuple during execution. This patch fixes this issue by extracting lateral Vars from within PlaceHolderVars and subsequently including them in the cache keys. In passing, this patch also includes a comment clarifying that Memoize nodes are currently not added on top of join relation paths. This explains why this patch only considers PlaceHolderVars that are due to be evaluated at baserels.

The PostgreSQL contrib tree
---------------------------
This subtree contains porting tools, analysis utilities, and plug-in
features that are not part of the core PostgreSQL system, mainly
because they address a limited audience or are too experimental to be
part of the main source tree. This does not preclude their
usefulness.
User documentation for each module appears in the main SGML
documentation.
When building from the source distribution, these modules are not
built automatically, unless you build the "world" target. You can
also build and install them all by running "make all" and "make
install" in this directory; or to build and install just one selected
module, do the same in that module's subdirectory.
Some directories supply new user-defined functions, operators, or
types. To make use of one of these modules, after you have installed
the code you need to register the new SQL objects in the database
system by executing a CREATE EXTENSION command. In a fresh database,
you can simply do
CREATE EXTENSION module_name;
See the PostgreSQL documentation for more information about this
procedure.
