Hmmm, just wondering - what would be needed to build such 'workload
library'? Building it from scratch is not feasible IMHO, but I guess
people could provide their own scripts (as simple as 'set up a a bunch
of tables, fill it with data, run some queries') and there's a pile of
such examples in the pgsql-performance list.
