Hackers:
I've been trying to get a test result for 8.1 that shows that we can eliminate
commit_delay and commit_siblings, as I believe that these settings no longer
have any real effect on performance. However, the checkpointing performance
issues have so far prevented me from getting a good test result for this.
Just a warning, because I might bring it up after feature freeze.
