Exactly the point. The process is now already waiting in all cases, so maybe we could just force waiting some WALSender signal before sending the fsync() order, so we now have Group Commit. I'm not sure this is a good idea at all, it's just the way I understand how adding WALSender process in the mix could give Group Commit feature for free. Regards, -- dim
