That's a weird one. Aborting a subtransacton that sets it, when it was already set. The loss of rd_newRelfilenodeSubid in that case is deterministic, but tracking the full complexity of multiple relations and multiple nested subxids isn't worth the trouble for such rare cases [assumption]. I'd go for just setting an its_too_complex flag (with better name) that we can use to trigger a message in COPY to say that FREEZE option won't be honoured. That would then be completely consistent, rather than the lack of deterministic behaviour that Robert rightly objects to. -- Simon Riggs http://www.2ndQuadrant.com/ PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Training & Services -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
