Sorry for the inconvenience.
Thanks for the updated version of the patch, I was looking into the latest version and I have a few comments. + if ((att->attlen == -1 && VARATT_IS_EXTERNAL_ONDISK(tmp_new_slot->tts_values[i])) && + (!old_slot->tts_isnull[i] && + !(VARATT_IS_EXTERNAL_ONDISK(old_slot->tts_values[i])))) + { + tmp_new_slot->tts_values[i] = old_slot->tts_values[i]; + newtup_changed = true; + } If the attribute is stored EXTERNAL_ONDIS on the new tuple and it is not null in the old tuple then it must be logged completely in the old tuple, so instead of checking !(VARATT_IS_EXTERNAL_ONDISK(old_slot->tts_values[i]), it should be asserted, + heap_deform_tuple(newtuple, desc, new_slot->tts_values, new_slot->tts_isnull); + heap_deform_tuple(oldtuple, desc, old_slot->tts_values, old_slot->tts_isnull); + + if (newtup_changed) + tmpnewtuple = heap_form_tuple(desc, tmp_new_slot->tts_values, new_slot->tts_isnull); + + old_matched = pgoutput_row_filter(relation, NULL, oldtuple, entry); + new_matched = pgoutput_row_filter(relation, NULL, + newtup_changed ? tmpnewtuple : newtuple, entry); I do not like the fact that, first we have deformed the tuples and we are again using the HeapTuple for expression evaluation machinery and later the expression evaluation we do the deform again. So why don't you use the deformed tuple as it is to store as a virtual tuple? Infact, if newtup_changed is true then you are forming back the tuple just to get it deformed again in the expression evaluation. I think I have already given this comment on the last version. -- Regards, Dilip Kumar EnterpriseDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com
