Hmm, that test has 8 permutations, five second each ... if we split it in 3 and run those in parallel, we reduce the total isolation runtime by 25 seconds even if we do *nothing else at all*. If we tweak the other things, I think we could make the whole set run in about 30 seconds total in a normal machine. Splitting the test never crossed my mind. -- Álvaro Herrera https://www.2ndQuadrant.com/ PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Remote DBA, Training & Services
