Thanks for the feedback. Please find attached version two, which moves the
code to the very start of BackendInitialize in
tcop/backend_startup.c. If we handle the request, we simply proc_exit and
avoid all the other backend startup stuff. So still a big win. I also made
a first rough pass at the documentation.
Cheers,
Greg
