The test you are introducing to force a complete segment to be filled is funky, and kind of nice actually while being cheap. This part particularly makes the test predictable: ++unlink $node->basedir . "/pgdata/pg_wal/$endfile" ++ or die "could not unlink " . $node->basedir . "/pgdata/pg_wal/$endfile: $!"; I really like that. > With the patch, running the same tap test succeeds and a PANIC is > not observed. This needs a very close lookup, I'll try to check all that except if somebody beats me to it. -- Michael
