Peter Geoghegan just reminded me over IM that there's actually logging inside log_heap_visible(), called from visibilitymap_set(). Still lacks a critical section though. I still think this is the wrong architecture. Greetings, Andres Freund PS: We're going to have to revamp visibilitymap_set() soon-ish - the fact that it directly calls heap routines inside is bad, means that additional AMs e.g. zheap has to reimplement that routine.
