I think so. There certainly isn't any question that the increased throughput and the increased number of XLogFlush() calls are because of the new group commit behavior. The cost of a WAL write + flush is more effectively amortized, and so XLogFlush() calls becomes cheaper. I'm not prepared to make any predictions as to exactly how they might relate. -- Peter Geoghegan -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
