As for direct I/O, we're only just getting started on that. We
currently can't produce more than one concurrent WAL write, and then
for relation data, we just got very basic direct I/O support but we
haven't yet got the asynchronous machinery to drive it properly (work
in progress, more soon). I was just now trying to find out what the
state of parallel direct writes is in ext4, and it looks like it's
finally happening:
