I doubt that. Having deployed several 7.4 databases, the first customers ask
(of course not in technical speech, but in the meaning) when the problem with
checkpoint hogging system down is solved. This is a really serious issue,
especially when using drbd + ext3. The system will become really unresponsive
when checkpoint is running.
I heavily await 7.5 because of the background writer.
