Segment files or WAL files larger than 4GB also gain from that. Anything for which we may finish to do a stat() on benefits from this change if running on Windows. For pg_dump, a workaround in PG <= 13 was to use --no-sync as the stat() failure came from files with a size larger than 4GB. That's rather sad as that means sacrifying durability for more usability :( -- Michael
