The assertion failure happens in the logical replication worker because it uses a dirty snapshot, which cannot release the pin per commit 2ed5b87f. This means that the leaf page can change between the time that we observe an item is dead, and the time we reach _bt_killitems(), even though _bt_killitems() does get to kill items. I am thinking about pushing a fix along the lines of the attached patch. This preserves the assertion, while avoiding the check in cases where it doesn't apply, such as when a dirty snapshot is in use. -- Peter Geoghegan
