0 (disabled), 16 (current default), 32, 64, 128, 256?
I'm suspecting that only backend_flush_after_* has these negative
performance implications at this point. One path is to increase that
option's default value, another is to disable only backend guided
flushing. And add a strong hint that if you care about predictable
throughput you might want to enable it.
