Right.  So what is the use-case for running your primary database with
full_page_writes on and the slaves with it off?  It doesn't seem like
a very sensible combination to me.

Also, it seems to me that some significant performance hit would be
taken by having to grovel through the log files to remove and re-add the
full-page data.  Plus you are actually writing *more* WAL data out of
the primary, not less, because you have to save both the full-page
images and the per-tuple data they normally replace.  Do you have
numbers showing that there's actually any meaningful savings overall?
