This means two tuples that are on the same heap page can be far apart from one another on an index page, and the heap page may be read twice and prefetch performance will degrade.

The patch fails currently doesn't apply: http://cfbot.cputube.org/patch_37_3454.log

As there hasn't been a response to this even in the last CF, I'm going to mark
this entry as returned with feedback (IMO shouldn't even have been moved to
this CF).
