Well, you can't go to more than 32K, but yes, it might.

Even then, I think your biggest problem is that the data locality is too
low. You're only grabbing ~3 rows every time you read a buffer that
probably contains ~20 rows. So that's an area for improvement. The other
thing that would help a lot is to trim the table down so it's not as wide.

Actually, something else that could potentially help a lot is to store
arrays of many data points in each row, either by turning each column
into an array or storing an array of a composite type. [1] is exploring
those ideas right now.

You could also try cstore_fdw. It's not a magic bullet, but it's storage
will be much more efficient than what you're doing right now.
