I was able to reproduce huge gains from this, after I introduced an 
artificial latency to all network packets with:

tc qdisc add dev eth2 root netem delay 100ms

With that, and with the client on different host so that the traffic 
goes through that high-latency network, I saw over 10x difference with 
the same psql test you ran.

Committed, thanks!
