optimized code generation by using specialized variants of ExecSeqScan* for [not] having a qual, projection etc. This allowed the compiler to optimize the code out the code for qual / projection. However, as observed by David Rowley at the time, the compiler couldn't prove the opposite, i.e. that the qual etc *are* present. By using pg_assume(), introduced ind65eb5b1b8
, we can tell the compiler that the relevant variables are non-null. This reduces the code size to a surprising degree and seems to lead to a small but reproducible performance gain.
