Does the timing dependence explain why we've not been able to trigger this by killing psql? If the bug only occurs when the client connection drops when we're not waiting for input, that would likely explain why nobody noticed it for ten months. 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
