+1. I know I've used worker_spi as a reference for writing background workers before. IMHO it'd be better if the patch documented the places where the ordering really does matter instead of hoping extension authors will understand the reasoning behind the proposed reordering. I agree that the current code could lead folks to think that PushActiveSnapshot must go after SPI_connect, but wouldn't the reverse ordering just give folks the opposite impression? -- Nathan Bossart Amazon Web Services: https://aws.amazon.com
