at the moment i am working on an application which is supposed to run
extremely large transactions (a lot of server side stored procedure
stuff which can hardly be split into small transactions for
visibility reasons).
so, from time to time it happens that i exceed my CommandCounter (>
2.000.000.000 statements inside the same transaction).
my idea is: how about adding a configure option to compile postgres
with a 64 bit command counter. this would allow larger transactions
for special purpose applications while it would not have an impact on
normal applications.
comments are welcome ...
best regards,
hans
