If you mean reporting it to the compiler vendor (Intel), I doubt that would be worthwhile. The version of the compiler on this machine is very out of date. It is version 9.0 20060222.

I have intentionally been keeping the compiler versions on my buildfarm members pretty much fixed, for the benefit of reproducable results. However, I would be interested in hearing any guidelines on "how old is too old" for buildfarm member versions. -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers

Well, I'm still running this on one development machine: $ gcc -v Reading specs from /usr/local/lib/gcc-lib/hppa2.0-hp-hpux10.20/2.95.3/specs gcc version 2.95.3 20010315 (release) so I'm not in the "it's too old" camp. My perspective on tool bugs is whether there is something (a) well defined and (b) not costly that we can do to work around it. So far, this issue is failing test (a) ... we know that one header inclusion order triggers the crash and another not, but there is no theory as to why. What I would suggest is to see whether a more recent x86 version shows the problem or not. If not, let's just write it off as an already-fixed compiler bug. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers

I'm not ready to buy into the position that we should make the regression tests pass on every last locale definition that anyone can find. That's probably impossible, and certainly more trouble than it'd be worth. I suspect there's only a dozen or two that need to get tested. But I would suggest that this could be the policy: don't complain about regression tests failing in a locale unless you're prepared to support a buildfarm member that tests that locale on a routine basis. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers

I'm not yet fully available for a discussion on this, but not sure I like this. You don't have to guess the setting of wal_keep_segments, you calculate it exactly from the size of your WAL disk. No other calculation is easy or accurate. This patch implements "fill disk until primary croaks" behaviour which means you are making a wild and risky guess as to whether it will work.

Re: [HACKERS] force_not_null option support for file_fdw
I tried to review this patch. It seems to me its implementation is reasonable and enough simple. All the works of this patch is pick-up "force_not_null" option from pg_attribute.attfdwoptions and transform its data structure into suitable form to the existing BeginCopyFrom(). So, I'd almost like to mark this patch "Ready for Committer". Here are only two points I'd like to comment on. + tuple = SearchSysCache2(ATTNUM, + RelationGetRelid(rel), + Int16GetDatum(attnum)); + if (!HeapTupleIsValid(tuple)) + ereport(ERROR, + (errcode(ERRCODE_UNDEFINED_OBJECT), +errmsg("cache lookup failed for attribute %d of relation %u", + attnum, RelationGetRelid(rel; The tuple should be always found unless we have any bugs that makes mismatch between pg_class.relnatts and actual number of attributes. So, it is a case to use elog(), instead of ereport() with error code. One other point is diffset of regression test, when I run `make check -C contrib/file_fdw'.

Main differences from prototype version: 1. Now it's part of pg core, not contrib module 2. It provides more operations for quadtree and suffix tree 3. It uses clustering algorithm of nodes on disk and has much better utilization of disk space. Fillfactor is supported 4. Some corner cases were eliminated 5. It provides support for concurency and recovery (inserts are logged, supports for deletes, and log replay will be added really soon) So, now code contains almost all possible overhead of production code and we ask hackers to test performance on real data sets. We expect the same performance for random data (since almost no overlaps) and much better performance on real-life data, plus much better index creation time. Also, we appreciate your comments and suggestions about API.

Re: [HACKERS] WIP: SP-GiST, Space-Partitioned GiST
I attached wrong patch in previous message, sorry ! Here is a last version. This is a new WIP of SP-GiST patch, which provides support for: 1. Concurrent vacuum 2. Vacuum logging 3. WAL replay Oleg On Thu, 1 Sep 2011, Oleg Bartunov wrote: This is updates SP-GiST patch, which fixed one bug and replaced test to the locale independent one.

Main differences from prototype version: 1. Now it's part of pg core, not contrib module 2. It provides more operations for quadtree and suffix tree 3. It uses clustering algorithm of nodes on disk and has much better utilization of disk space. Fillfactor is supported 4. Some corner cases were eliminated 5. It provides support for concurency and recovery (inserts are logged, supports for deletes, and log replay will be added really soon) So, now code contains almost all possible overhead of production code and we ask hackers to test performance on real data sets. We expect the same performance for random data (since almost no overlaps) and much better performance on real-life data, plus much better index creation time.
