Hi Tatsuo,

Thank you for the thorough review and the fix to the tests!. Here's the
updated patch addressing all your comments.

re - replication_delay_source_cmd requirement

Good catch — the feature now also works when `delay_threshold_by_time > 0`.
I've added the TTL update call to `check_replication_time_lag()` (the
pg_stat_replication path), not just
`check_replication_time_lag_with_cmd()`. The docs are updated to reflect
that either `replication_delay_source_cmd` or `delay_threshold_by_time` can
provide the time-based delay.

re - Documentation compile error

Fixed — the xref was pointing to `runtime-config-track-table-mutation` but
the actual section ID is `runtime-config-table-mutation-map`.

Thanks again and looking forward to hearing back from you.

Subject: [PATCH] feat(load_balance): add in-memory table mutation tracking

Introduces 'dml_adaptive_global' as a new value for disable_load_balance_on_write.
This mode is a superset of dml_adaptive: it performs per-transaction local tracking
AND cross-session shared-memory tracking of recently written tables, routing reads
to primary until a TTL (based on measured replication delay) expires.

Sub-parameters (track_table_mutation_*) control TTL factor, cold start duration,
hash table sizing, and query parse cache sizing.
