This has largely fixed the problem, so I think this should be applied.
Cool, will do so tomorrow or such. Thanks for testing.


With some adjustments to the tests to remove problematic cases (e.g.
postgres_fdw's ft_pg_type) the tests pass. The exception is
HEAD->HEAD. The change is that the LOs are not dumped in the same
order pre and post upgrade. I can change the tests to allow for a
greater fuzz factor - generally when the source and target are the
same we don't allow any fuzz.  Or if we care we could do a better job
of dumping LOs in a consistent order.
So you'd want to dump large objects in oid order or such? Probably
comparatively not a huge overhead, but also not nothing? We don't really
force ordering in other places in pg_dump afaik.


Well, all other data is dumped in a consistent order, and the tests rely on this. If we don't care about that for LOs I can accommodate it. I don't have a terribly strong opinion about the desirability of making LOs keep the same behaviour.


cheers
