The attached is a patch to optimize contrib/pgbench using new 8.3 features.

- Use DROP IF EXISTS to suppress errors for initial loadings.
- Use a combination of TRUNCATE and COPY to reduce WAL on creating
the accounts table.

Also, there are some cosmetic changes.

- Change the output of -v option from "starting full vacuum..."
to "starting vacuum accounts..." in reflection of the fact.
- Shape duplicated error checks into executeStatement().

There is a big performance win in "COPY with no WAL" feature.
Thanks for the efforts!

Regards,
