It's a very interesting topic to me, too. I had developed some scripts to
measure and compare postgres`s performance using miscellaneous public
benchmarks (ycsb, tpcds, benchmarksql_tpcc, htapbench, benchbase, gdprbench,
s64da-benchmark, ...). Having compared 15.3 (56e869a09) with master
(58f5edf84) I haven't seen significant regressions except a few minor ones.
First regression observed with a simple pgbench test:
pgbench -i benchdb
pgbench -c 10 -T 300 benchdb
(with default compilation options and fsync = off)

On master I get:
tps = 10349.826645 (without initial connection time)
On 15.3:
tps = 11296.064992 (without initial connection time)

This difference is confirmed by multiple test runs. `git bisect` for this
regression pointed at f193883fc.

Best regards,
Alexander
