Without the limit node the runtimes (after "priming" the cache)
were:

1.805, 2.533
1.805, 2.495
1.800, 2.446
1.818, 2.470
1.804, 2.502

The first time for each run is "Total runtime" reported by EXPLAIN,
the second is what psql reported from having \timing on.

With the limit node:

3.237, 3.914
3.243, 3.918
3.263, 4.010
3.265, 3.943
3.272, 3.953

I eyeballed that in the console window and said 1.35 based on rough
in-my-head calculations, although with it laid out in a nicer
format, I think I was a little low.
