Thanks for updating the patch. > Please review it. > I think at this stage it is important that we do some study of various approaches to achieve this work and come up with a comparison of the pros and cons of each approach (a) what this patch provides, (b) what is implemented in Global Snapshots patch [1], (c) if possible, what is implemented in Postgres-XL. I fear that if go too far in spending effort on this and later discovered that it can be better done via some other available patch/work (maybe due to a reasons like that approach can easily extended to provide atomic visibility or the design is more robust, etc.) then it can lead to a lot of rework.
