You made a mistake again. My approach is not about 
active-active. I did not ever claim that my patch will allow active-active 
(because we do not still have a transaction manager). When I said that any 
instance is able to commit I mean that any replica, which sees a majority, 
able to finalize a transaction (commit it) even if the transaction initiator is 
dead.

Please, point me out first how your claims related to my approach. Because you 
made no effort to understand the approach. Even did not ask for very brief 
explanation.

The next wrong suggestion. I have a concrete design which was shared and 
discussed.

and the patch can't pass the code review for over 3 months.
Please read my previous message and find out why this patchset is on hold.
To be concrete, the patch is not passed the review because of:
1. Bad gc design which I want to fix first, and I already answered why your 
approach to fix it is not even working. Yes, you could not / did not want to 
object.
2. Vlad's comment about comments and naming. Please tell me how a miracle RFC 
could fix this issue (Yes, I am not very accurate with comments and texts)
3. Vlad comment about dynamic array allocation which I want to respond in the 
next version. I would like to repeat, I do not want to sent it until the first 
point will not be fixed.
4. Vlad's comments about some mess in my code (xlog_buf_begin and friends). 
They are already fixed but not shared because of the first point. And there is 
no way how a RFC could prevent it.

All this suggest that you have no clue how the patch would work in the future, 
seriously.
