I see with a 2~3% noise similar improvements on my laptop with non-parallel tests. That's nice. +#define WAITS_PER_SEC 10 /* should divide 1000000 evenly */ As a matter of style, you could define 1000000 as well in a variable and refer to the variable for the division. > Barring objections I'd like to push this soon. This also pops up more easily failures with 001_stream_rep.pl without a patch applied from the other recent thread, so this patch had better not get in before anything from https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/8962.1498425...@sss.pgh.pa.us. -- Michael -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
