Thanks, In my first question I would like to use xmin instead of cmin, even so I could understand the logic.
Then for each XID you have 2 bilions XIDs that are considered lower than and the other 2 bi higher than. About row visibility: are all the rows with xmin higher than my XID be considered in the future and not visible to my XID? Thanks in advance!
