I know there are still discussions going on concerning the whole fsync
issue, but, from what I've been following, its purely a performance issue
then anything ...

Now that Tom's patch is in place for the XLOG stuff, I'd like to put out a
Beta6 tomorrow for testing, with an RC1 schedualed for next week ...

Is there anything *major* left, other then the fsync issue, that needs to
be resolved?

Don't believe so.

I'm testing xlog fsync revisions now, should be ready to commit in an
hour or so.  (I'm just curious to see what it does to the pgbench
results...)

Okay, I'll wrap up beta6 tomorrow, give a weekend for ppl to test, and
*finally* roll out RC1 if nobody has anything major that creeps up ...:)
