Yes, but this only happens when you don't have enought spare idle CPU
time. If you are in such situation for long periods, there's nothing you
can do, you already have problems.
My approach in winning here because it allows you to have bursts of CPU
utilization without being affected by the overhead of a overwriting smgr
that (without hacks) will always try to find available slots, even in
high load situations.

Why ? I have plenty of CPU time available on my server, even if one of
my table is highly volatile, fast-changing.
