I also think the tests added for regression may be more than required. Currently it is organized as below: 1. 3 type of parameters to use with set persistent. a. parameters for which new connection is required (log_connections) b. parameters for which server restart is required c. parameters for which reload is required I think in third category "c", there are many parameters, I think may be 3-4 parameters should be sufficient. The initial intention to keep more parameters is to have test it for various type(Boolean, integer, float, string) 2. Set some of the parameters to default, then try reload and reconnect. 3. Again set those parameters to some value and re-verify by reload and reconnect. 4. Test for set persistent command inside functions and transaction. 5. Set all parameters value to default. I think tests for step-3 can be removed and tests for step-5 can be merged to step-2. If you think above optimization's to reduce number of tests are okay, then I will update the patch. > That's still not the sort of small change Tom was hoping this was > possible, but it's closer to the right range.
