Max, Have you done performance measurements that show rmlocks to be a win in this scenario? I did some patchs for UNIX domain sockets to replace the rwlock there but it appeared not to have a measurable impact on SQL benchmarks, presumbaly because the read/write blend wasn't right and/or that wasnt a significant source of overhead in the benchmark. I'd anticipate a much more measurable improvement for pfil, but would be interested in learning how much is seen?
