Slightly off topic, but possibly relevant to the overall process:
those are the same conditions under which I would love to see the
rows inserted with the hint bits showing successful commit and the
transaction ID showing frozen. We currently do a VACUUM FREEZE
ANALYZE after such a load, to avoid burdening random users with the
writes. It would be nice not to have to write all the pages again
right after a load.
