In the patch I am patch-to-be it's binaryheap_reset(), but yes ;). Are you already patching it, or do you want me to finish it? I have a not so nice testcase and I can confirm that this is the issue and that a binaryheap_reset() fixes it: SELECT (SELECT g.i FROM ((SELECT random()::int ORDER BY 1 OFFSET 0) UNION ALL (SELECT random()::int ORDER BY 1 OFFSET 0)) f(i) ORDER BY f.i LIMIT 1) FROM generate_series(1, 10) g(i); Greetings, Andres Freund -- Andres Freund http://www.2ndQuadrant.com/ PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Training & Services -- Sent via pgsql-bugs mailing list (pgsql-bugs@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-bugs
