In my opinion, verifying the iteration results is only necessary to
avoid introducing bugs while developing this patch. The verification
is too excessive for regular development of PostgreSQL. I agree that
we should avoid a significant degradation in assert enabled builds, so
I will consider removing it.

For me, who is developing the planner in this thread, the memory
measurement patch is useful. However, most users do not care about
memory usage, so there is room for consideration. For example, making
the metrics optional in EXPLAIN ANALYZE outputs might be better.
