Hmm, forcibly stopping currently running table sync is not what was intended, I'll have to look into it. We should not be forcibly stopping anything except the main apply worker during drop subscription (and we do that only because we can't drop the remote replication slot otherwise). > Also, until commit the transaction the worker cannot launch new table > sync worker due to conflicting tuple lock on pg_subscription_rel. > That part is correct, we don't know if the transaction will be rolled back or not so we can't start workers as the state of the data in the table in unknown. -- Petr Jelinek 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
