I'm not sure I like issuing spurious syncs unconditionally. Therefore,
I prefer Thomas' approach in that regard. 0002 would be beneficial,
considering the case of a very large max_wal_size, and the code seems
to be the minimal required. I don't think it matters that the lock
attempts occur uselessly until the first segment installation. That
being said, we could avoid it by initializing
last_known_installed_segno properly.
regards.
