VoltDB is interesting. I'm wondering if two postgres databases could instead use eachother's RAM instead of a transaction log, to have very high transaction rates.

It's sync replication but only to RAM. Checkpoints can occur whenever. So you get higher availability than a single server and more speed due to transactions just hitting RAM.
