Tomas Vondra: Some more thoughts on random_page_cost (opens in new tab)

A couple months back I random_page_cost to better reflect how current storage handles random and sequential access. I had a bunch of great discussions about the topic since then, but ultimately I got distracted by other stuff. about this very topic (and many other great talks, BTW). Which reminded me that I started thinking about random_page_cost a bit differently. So here’s an update with some more thoughts.
