Tuning efforts and versions

#1

I am stuck to Postgres 8.3 because there is no pljava for the version
8.4, at least not in the RPM form. There are significant changes in 8.4.2
with respect to background writer and asynchronous writes. In particular,
there is a parameter effective_io_concurrency documented here:

http://www.postgresql.org/docs/curre...-resource.html

This works on Postgres 8.4.2 and has a visible effect on large data loads
and index creation. Is there a possibility of back-porting this to 8.3?
Alternatively, when can I expect pljava package for version 8.4?

Definitely not.

New features are *never* introduced with minor upgrades
Or to put the other way round: minor upgrades *only* include bug fixes, never introduce _new_ stuff

Bummer! I hope that pljava package for 8.4.2 will be released soon.
