Thanks for showing the interest in patch.  How have you ensured that
streaming is happening?  I don't think the proposed patch can ensure
it for every case because we also rely on logical_decoding_work_mem to
decide whether to stream/spill, see ReorderBufferCheckMemoryLimit.  I
think with your patch it will allow streaming for cases where we have
large amount of WAL to decode.

I feel you need to add some DEBUG messages (or some other way) to
ensure that all existing and new test cases related to logical
decoding will perform the streaming.
