I've just stumbled across this thread on lkml [1]
"Improve lseek scalability v3".

and I thought to ping pgsql hackers list
just in case, more to the point they're
asking "are there any real workloads which care
[Make generic lseek lockless safe]"

maybe I've got it wrong but it seems somewhat
related to what has been discussed here and
also in Robert Haas's "Linux and glibc Scalability"
blog post [1].
