Attached is v12, which fixed bitrot against the master branch. This version has significant comment and documentation revisions. It is functionally equivalent to v11, though.
I intend to commit the patch in the next couple of weeks. While it certainly would be nice to get a more thorough review, I don't feel that it is strictly necessary. The patch provides very significant benefits with certain workloads that have traditionally been considered an Achilles' heel for Postgres. Even zheap doesn't provide a solution to these problems. The only thing that I can think of that might reasonably be considered in competition with this design is WARM, which hasn't been under active development since 2017 (I assume that it has been abandoned by those involved).
I am planning to look into this patch in the next few days.
