I suppose that as far as the buildfarm goes it's okay that the test fails from time to time, but it may be worse from packagers' points of view, where a randomly failing test can wreck the whole building process. Is a 0.005% failure probability low enough that nobody will be bothered by that? -- Álvaro Herrera http://www.2ndQuadrant.com/ PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Remote DBA, 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
