Yes, I would. 7.4 was the first release to include support for proper
spinlocks on AMD64.
(From a Redhat POV, it would probably be a good idea to patch 7.3 to
include the relatively trivial changes needed for decent AMD64
performance, assuming that shipping a more recent version of PG with ES
isn't an option.)
