If you rebuild with --enable-cassert, does the crash get more reproducible?
Indeed. Every time. This is now the default for my development environment.
I'm also pretty uncomfortable with the fact that you're returning out of your function while still connected to SPI. That would certainly cause problems for anything else trying to use SPI in the same query.
Ditto. I knew this while writing the code but didn't see any other way to handle it.
The tuplestore stuff sounds like the right solution, but in the interests of providing a quick patch to my production environment does it makes sense to make a copy of the SPI_tuptable during the first-call of the SRF (allocated in the SRF's memory context of course)?
I need to look into what plpgsql does with the tuplestore business but I suppose it knows how to spill to disk and such. In the end, that's what I'd want, but I think it'll take me more than an hour to write that code.
Thanks for your time and help.
