I suspect that the best thing would be to just turn the spinlock into an lwlock. Spinlocks deal terribly with contention. I suspect it'd solve the performance issue entirely. And it might even be possible, further down the line, to just use a shared lock, and use atomics for the counters. Greetings, Andres Freund
