OK, that one is still in the test runs I am doing right now, but I will drop it from future batches to save time and energy that can be better spent on things we have a chance of getting done for 9.2. > The other patches have clearer and specific roles without heuristics > (mostly), so are at least viable for 9.2, though still requiring > agreement. I think we must also drop removebufmgrfreelist-v1 from consideration, unless you want to go over it some more and try to figure out a fix for whatever caused it to crap out on these tests. IIUC, that corresponds to this CommitFest entry: https://commitfest.postgresql.org/action/patch_view?id=744 Whatever is wrong must be something that happens pretty darn infrequently, since it only happened on one test run out of 54, which also means that if you do want to pursue that one we'll have to go over it pretty darn carefully to make sure that we've fixed that issue and don't have any others. I have to admit my personal preference is for postponing that one to 9.3 anyway, since there are some related issues I'd like to experiment with. But let me know how you'd like to proceed. -- Robert Haas EnterpriseDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise PostgreSQL Company -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
