Oh, was it 9.5 where we added the code to use CPU OPs to speed up the
calculations..? If so then that surprises me a bit, as, if I recall
correctly, I had a 9.5-based server where the replica simply couldn't
keep up with replay and was entirely CPU-bound..
I had thought those changes went into 9.6. If they were in 9.5 then
that's possibly a bit disappointing.
Of course, this was a while ago, perhaps that was actually a 9.4
server.. mmm, will have to go find out.
Thanks!
Stephen
