The 0001 patch does this.

In fact there was another problem. The current code estimate two different
pathes for fetching data pages: in the case of a partial match, it takes into
account that all the data pages will have to be fetched. So this is is now
taken into account for the CPU cost as well.
For the regular search, we scale the number of data pages by the number of
search entries.
