> Currently, we are paranoid and validate every log segment when it is
> finalized. For the a log segment that has been written entirely by one
> writer, with no recovery in between, this is overly paranoid (we don't do
> this for local journals). It also causes log rolls to be slow and take time
> linear in the size of the segment. Instead, we should optimize this path to
> simply trust that the segment is correct so long as the txids match up as
> expected.
