> Amit, I suggest an interval to control this setting. Time is something we have control; transactions aren't
(dependingon workload). pg_stat_replication query interval usually is not milliseconds, however, you can execute
thousandsof transactions in a second. If we agree on that idea I can add it to the patch.

Do you mean to say that if for some threshold interval we didn't
stream any transaction, then we can send the next empty transaction to
the subscriber? If so, then isn't it possible that the empty xacts
happen irregularly after the specified interval and then we still end
up sending them all. I might be missing something here, so can you
please explain your idea in detail? Basically, how will it work and
how will it solve the problem.
