Not directly, but I was running 'vmstat 1' throughout. Cache space dropped about 2.1 GB while it was running and popped back up to the previous level at the end. -Kevin -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers(a)postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers

The above numbers were from the ends of the range. I've gone back over and found that while it dropped about 2.1 GB almost immediately, cache usage slowly dropped throughout the dump, and bottomed at about 6.9 GB below baseline. -Kevin -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers(a)postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers

OK, that's still not very scary --- it just means my off-the-cuff estimate of 1:1 space usage was bad. 3:1 isn't that surprising either given padding and other issues. The representation of ArchiveEntries could probably be made a bit more compact ... regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers(a)postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers

When I'm testing the new patch, I found "ALTER LARGE OBJECT" command returns "ALTER LARGEOBJECT" tag. Should it be "ALTER LARGE(space)OBJECT" instead? As I remember, we had decided not to use LARGEOBJECT (without a space) in user-visible messages, right?

The command tag should match the actual command. If the command name is "ALTER LARGE OBJECT", the command tag should be too. This is independent of phraseology we might choose in error messages (though I agree I don't like "largeobject" in those either). regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers(a)postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers |
