So, the current default is the most conservative and can run anywhere; your proposal is a bit optimistic, right? Since long transactions should be avoided in any case, and everyone knows it, I agree with your point. One comment for your patch; Shouldn't we add a streaming=off case for pg_dump test? You added lines but no one passes it. Best regards, Hayato Kuroda FUJITSU LIMITED
