Indeed, now it seems to be always printed but the documentation did not
follow, there should be a:

latency average = 117.392 ms

In front of the tps line. Well, the performance displayed could also be
improved... On my dual core SSD laptop I just got:

sh> ./pgbench -c 10 -t 1000
starting vacuum...end.
transaction type: <builtin: TPC-B (sort of)>
scaling factor: 100
query mode: simple
number of clients: 10
number of threads: 1
number of transactions per client: 1000
number of transactions actually processed: 10000/10000
latency average = 9.527 ms
tps = 1049.665115 (including connections establishing)
tps = 1049.890194 (excluding connections establishing)

Which is about 10 times better.
