I'm not seeing why we need this cache anymore. This is an append-only list, so we could instead keep a backend-local copy of LWLockCounter that gets updated as needed. As long as the ID is less than our backend-local counter, we can go straight to the shared array. If it is greater, we'll have to first update our counter, which should be rare and inexpensive. -- nathan
