When I do a snapshot, that file is part of the snapshot. But are changes within the file kept as well?
In other words, is it useful to have snapshots of a postgresql database server? If a database file uses 10% of the pool, and changes 20% between each snapshot, would the pool run out of space after 9 more snapshots? Or would the pool continue to have 90% free space? Or would only 70% or so free space?
