Color me skeptical --- ruleutils has never especially been designed
to be fast, and I can't see that the overhead of this is going to be
acceptable to anybody who needs pg_stat_statements in production.
(Some admittedly rough experiments suggest that we might be
talking about an order-of-magnitude slowdown for simple queries.)
