Re: Add memory/disk usage for WindowAgg nodes in EXPLAIN

David,

Thank you for your review.

Yeah, that makes sense. Looks less random.

I agree with this. This kind of check should be done in the calling
function.

Yeah. Maybe we should move the function to elsewhere so that it can be
shared by other tests. However in this case it's purpose is testing an
additional output in an explain command. I think this is not far from
"This file is concerned with testing EXPLAIN in its own right.". So I
would like to keep the test in explain.sql.

Right. I will make the change.

Thanks. Attached is the v4 patch. I am going push it if there's no
objection.

After this, I will work on remaining node types.

Best reagards,
