I'm not entirely sure either, but I think the idea has some potential. If SLRU pages have headers, that means that they have LSNs, and perhaps then we could use those LSNs to figure out when they're safe to write to disk, instead of ad-hoc mechanisms. See SlruSharedData's group_lsn field. -- Robert Haas EDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com
