If it were a green field then naming it data_integrity=off would do more to scare wave people away than hacking the config system. But making the change now after years seems kind of silly. I do wonder if it could be made a synonym for setting a large value of wal_writer_delay. That wouldn't really help Tom's concern about development but it might provide the same performance for the traditional use case of initial loading of large databases. That would require a lot of empirical testing though. -- greg
