That patch got me thinking about what else could be excluded and after
some investigation I found the following: pg_notify, pg_serial,
pg_snapshots, pg_subtrans. These directories are all cleaned, zeroed,
or rebuilt on server start.
If someone wanted to scratch an itch, it would also be useful to put
things that are zeroed under a single dedicated directory, so that folks
who wanted to could mount that on a ram drive. It would also be useful
to do that for stuff that's only reset on crash (to put it on local
storage as opposed to a SAN).
I definitely have something like that in mind and thought this was a
good place to start.
