For pg_attribute, this allows to insert at once a full set of attributes for a relation (roughly 15% of WAL reduction in extreme cases). For pg_shdepend, this reduces the work done when creating new shared dependencies from a database template. The number of slots used for the insertion is capped at 64kB of data inserted for both, depending on the number of items to insert and the length of the rows involved. More can be done for other catalogs, like pg_depend. This part requires a different approach as the number of slots to use depends also on the number of entries discarded as pinned dependencies. This is also related to the rework or dependency handling for ALTER TABLE and CREATE TABLE, mainly.
