That would require fairly major restructuring of xlog.c, which I don't
want to undertake at this point in the cycle (we're trying to push out
a release candidate, remember?). I'm not convinced it would be a huge
win anyway. It would be a win if your average transaction writes
multiple blocks' worth of XLOG ... but if your average transaction
writes less than a block then it won't help.
I think it probably is a good idea to restructure xlog.c so that it can
write more than one page at a time --- but it's not such a great idea
that I want to hold up the release any more for it.
