Isn't double-buffering solving this issue? Has somebody checked if it
even helps performance due to being able to release the lock on the
buffer *before* the syscall?
Double-buffering helps with the hint bit issues within shared buffers,
but doesn't help with the torn page and hint bits problem. The torn page
problem seems to be the show-stopper.
