reading postgres benchmarks for beginners advises to stop reading on the
words "default (ie. unchanged postgresql.conf); but the real test is given
right after:

That confirmes my first impression (on different workload) of "the speed has
doubled".

If reality confirmes, that 8.2 to 8.3 will be a small step in versions, and
a great step in databases.

yeah but keep in mind that this one only tested a very specific scenario
(update heavy, workload fits easily in buffercache and benefits from
HOT) - it is a fairly neat improvement though ...
