I'm happy with the idea of a readahead process. I thought we were
implementing a BackgroundReader process for other uses. Is that dead
now?
I see you're doing this as a standalone command. Shame we can't include
this into core for now, but I can see the reasons why.
How does the whole toolchain look with this?
Can you give a simple example of using pg_lesslog, pg_readahead and
pg_standby together, if that is appropriate?
