By the way, I now think that the second part of your patch, to allow
interruption during ReorderBufferCommit processing, is also very
desirable.
Not just for that feature, but because we should be processing client
messages during long ReorderBufferCommit executions so that we can
respond to feedback from the client. Right now, long running
ReorderBufferCommit runs can trigger walsender_timeout because there's
no feedback processed.
Alternately, ReorderBufferCommit() could call back into the walsender
with a progress update, without requiring the client to send feedback.
It knows the client is making progress because it's consuming data on
the socket. But I'd rather have client feedback processed, since it
could be useful later for client=->server messages to output plugin
callbacks too.
