the next are handled by ReleaseAndReadBuffer rather than separate ReleaseBuffer and ReadBuffer calls. This cuts the number of acquisitions of the BufMgrLock by a factor of 2 (possibly more, if an indexscan happens to pull successive rows from the same heap page). Unfortunately this doesn't seem enough to get us out of the recently discussed context-switch storm problem, but it's surely worth doing anyway.
