I wonder if we even need to retain the bgwriter_percent GUC var. Is there actually a situation in which the combination of bgwriter_maxpages and bgwriter_delay does not give the DBA sufficient flexibility in tuning bgwriter behavior?

StrategyDirtyBufferList to finding at most bgwriter_maxpages.

Is the plan to make bgwriter_percent = 100 the default setting?
