Cool, anything > 1 is just better. Just quick question, so now we have:

#define DEFAULT_EFFECTIVE_IO_CONCURRENCY 16
#define DEFAULT_MAINTENANCE_IO_CONCURRENCY 10

Shouldn't maintenance be now also at the same value (16) instead of
10? Also, fc34b0d9de27 (5 years ago by Thomas) states about m_io_c:
"Use the new setting in heapam.c instead of the hard-coded formula
effective_io_concurrency + 10 introduced by commit 558a9165e08.", so
there was always assumption that m_io_c > e_io_c (?) Now it's kind of
inconsistent to see bitmap heap scans pushing more IOPs than
recovery(!)/ANALYZE/VACUUM or am I missing something? No pressure to
change, just asking what Your thoughts are.
