Further, I don't think there's anything about 1.1 that would be expected
to be *better* than 1.2, in terms of performance.

The one thing that would be expected to affect performance is the
switching between log tables (sl_log_1 and sl_log_2).  And the fact that
this has the ability to *empty* the tables should be an improvement.

I can suggest one thing to take a particular look at, namely what indices
are on sl_log_1 and sl_log_2.

There should, over time, become a set of partial indexes on these tables
based on the node numbers that are the origins of replication sets.  That
should be a help (e.g. - better performance than in 1.1, which didn't do
this).

If there aren't good indices on these tables, which would be unexpected,
that could cause problems
