I've been testing for a couple of hours now and just comparing results to
the results Oracle gives me. Perhaps not the best method but it's faster
than reading through the spec.
I managed to get a seg-fault with the following query.
select salary,dense_rank() over (order by salary desc)
from employee
group by salary;
It's the group by that does it.
test=# select salary,dense_rank() over (order by salary desc) from employee
group by salary;
server closed the connection unexpectedly
This probably means the server terminated abnormally
before or while processing the request.
The connection to the server was lost. Attempting reset: Failed.
It seems to be possible to crash not just dense_rank() and rank().
This crashes too.
select relid,AVG(seq_Scan) OVER (ORDER BY relid)
FROM pg_stat_user_tables
GROUP BY relid,seq_scan;
Oracle allows both these queries.
Of course I changed table names and column names to make the test case a bit
easier to re-produce.
Looking forward to seeing windowing functions in 8.4!
