The rules are only loaded once on first use, right? I tested with
date; for x in $(seq 1 1000); do psql -X -c "select unaccent('foobar')"
-o /dev/null; done; date
and this had the same runtime (about 8 seconds here) with and without
the patch.
Btw., with the patch I get
WARNING: duplicate source strings, first one will be used
so it will need to adjustments in how the rules are produced.
