What I miss from my DB2 UDB days are buffer pools. In PostgreSQL terms 
this would be part of shared buffers dedicated to a relation or a set of 
relations. When you have a big DB (not fitting in memory) you also 
usually want some small tables/indexes be in memory, no matter what 
other load DB has.
Complimentary features are:
1) Relations preloading at startup - ensure this relation are in memory.
2) Per buffer pool (or relation) page costs - tell it that this 
indexes/tables ARE in memory

Best regards, Vitalii Tymchyshyn.
