Here is the definition of relation_byte_size() in optimizer/path/costsize.c:

```-------------------------------------------------------------------
/*
 * relation_byte_size
 *        Estimate the storage space in bytes for a given number of tuples
 *        of a given width (size in bytes).
 */
static double
relation_byte_size(double tuples, int width)
{
        return tuples * (MAXALIGN(width) + MAXALIGN(sizeof(HeapTupleData)));
}
```

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Shouldn't this be HeapTupleHeaderData and not HeapTupleData ?

(Of course, from a costing perspective these shouldn't be very different but ...)
