BUG #13701: Spelling error in bgwriter_lru_multiplier comment

From

The following bug has been logged on the website:

Bug reference:      13701
Logged by:          Greg Clough
Email address:      postgresql.org@gclough.com
PostgreSQL version: 9.4.5
Operating system:   Oracle Linux v6.7
Description:

The default postgresql.conf includes the line:

#bgwriter_lru_multiplier = 2.0          # 0-10.0 multipler on buffers
scanned/round

The comment has the word "multipler", but I think that's missing the second
"i" and  should be "multiplier".

I apologize if this is too small of an error to be considered a bug, but I
figured that we want to be the best we can.

Regards.
Greg.

You are correct.  This will be fixed in 9.6.  We can't backpatch this as
it introduces confusing changes into postgresql.conf.sample.  Thanks.
