Wait a minute, I think we may be barking up the wrong tree. The three commits that serinus saw as new in its first failure were ce95c54376 Thu Mar 24 20:33:13 2022 UTC Fix pg_statio_all_tables view for multiple TOAST indexes. 7dac61402e Thu Mar 24 19:51:40 2022 UTC Remove unused module imports from TAP tests 412ad7a556 Thu Mar 24 18:52:28 2022 UTC Fix possible recovery trouble if TRUNCATE overlaps a checkpoint. I failed to look closely at dragonet, but I now see that its first failure saw ce95c54376 Thu Mar 24 20:33:13 2022 UTC Fix pg_statio_all_tables view for multiple TOAST indexes. 7dac61402e Thu Mar 24 19:51:40 2022 UTC Remove unused module imports from TAP tests serinus is 0-for-3 since then, and dragonet 0-for-4, so we can be pretty confident that the failure is repeatable for them. That means that the culprit must be ce95c54376 or 7dac61402e, not anything nearby such as 412ad7a556. It's *really* hard to see how the pg_statio_all_tables change could have affected this. So that leaves 7dac61402e, which did this to the test script that's failing: use strict; use warnings; -use Config; use PostgreSQL::Test::Cluster; use PostgreSQL::Test::Utils; Discuss. regards, tom lane
