My question was if the slowdown of every transaction start is really 
needed - If it is possible to find some other solution, for example add 
more logic to vacuum to pick up correct txn id (or little bit more 
"correct"). But unfortunately I have no idea how to do this because of 
my limited knowledge of Pg internals, the diffucult part I guess are the 
shared relations...
