I'm working my way through them. I'm just about to pull in the
growfs transaction patch (missed it last time around), and I try to
have a decent look over the other two patches later today.

I'm not sure I have any bandwidth to test them yet, but perhaps if I
add a one-time message "Experimental feature in use" when the code
is first executed then it will be OK to merge (i.e. process similar
to delayed logging and CRC introduction). Once we've got more
confidence that it's all working properly, then we can remove the
experimental tag from it. Does that sound like a reasonable
approach to take?

Cheers,

Dave.
