Having a new implementation that would remove the archive_command is
probably a better long term solution, but I don't know of anyone
working on that and it's probably gonna take some time.  Right now we
have a lot of users that face archiving bottleneck so I think it would
be a good thing to implement parallel archiving, fully compatible with
current archive_command, as a short term solution.
