Note that only one of the listed standbys is a synchronous standby at
any given time though.  That is, when you commit, the primary server
will wait just for that one server to report that it has fsync'ed the
WAL.  (There is a patch being developed to change that so that you
might be able to wait for more than one in a future release).
