Hi, 
One of our application using RDS postgres. In one of our streaming applications(using flink) which processes 100's of millions of transactions each day, we are using row by row transaction processing for inserting data into the postgres database and commit is performed for each row. We are seeing heavy IO:XactSynch wait events during the data load and also high overall response time. 

Architecture team is suggesting to enable asynch io if possible, so that the streaming client will not wait for the commit confirmation from the database. So I want to understand , how asynch io can be enabled and if any downsides of doing this? 

Regards
Veem
