You need to compare the number before/after serialize_accept is enabled.

Another point, although not directly related to serialize_accept, you
must be carefull that pgbench does not eat all CPU resource. If so,
that could be a bottle neck of the number. In that case, you can run
multiple pgbench sessions on different machines and sum up the TPS
number.

Yes, exactly.
