I recall taht pow(x, 2) and x * x result usually in the same assembly
code, but pow() can never be more optimal than a simple
multiplication. So I'd think that it is wiser to avoid it in this code
path. Documentation is missing for the new replication command
SHOW_WAL_SEG. Actually, why not just having an equivalent of the SQL
command and be able to query parameter values?
