Thank you for your feedback. I also can confirm that a lot of users would be very happy to have "read your writes consistency" and ready to do something to achieve this at an application level. However, they typically don't know what exactly they need. So, blogging about pg_wal_replay_wait() and spreading words about it at conferences would be highly appreciated. ------ Regards, Alexander Korotkov
