Yea, as the relevant comment in RecordTransactionCommit() says;

         * Note that at this stage we have marked clog, but still show as 
running
         * in the procarray and continue to hold locks.
         */
        if (wrote_xlog && markXidCommitted)
                SyncRepWaitForLSN(XactLastRecEnd, true);


But it's worthwhile to emphasize that data at that stage actually *can*
be visible on standbys. The fact that the transaction still shows as
running via procarray, on the primary, does not influence visibility
determinations on the standby.
