Thanks, Tom. Should be close enough for jazz.

When I was first going over the Using Explain section, I stumbled a
bit on the startup time/total time/loops bit (which is why explain-
analyze.info times and percentages are currently miscalculated). I
took startup time to be the time to return the first row *of the
first loop*. But it's actually the average startup time to return the
first row *in each loop*, right?
