I'm starting to look at this. So far I've only just done a quick
performance test on it. With the workload I ran, using 0001+0002.
The test replayed ~2.2 GB of WAL. master took 148.581 seconds and
master+0001+0002 took 115.588 seconds. That's about 28% faster. Pretty
nice!
I found running a lower heap fillfactor will cause quite a few more
heap cleanups to occur. Perhaps that's one of the reasons the speedup
I got was more than the 12% you reported.
More details of the test:
Setup:
drowley@amd3990x:~$ cat recoverbench.sh
#!/bin/bash
pg_ctl stop -D pgdata -m smart
pg_ctl start -D pgdata -l pg.log -w
psql -c "drop table if exists t1;" postgres > /dev/null
psql -c "create table t1 (a int primary key, b int not null) with
(fillfactor = 85);" postgres > /dev/null
psql -c "insert into t1 select x,0 from generate_series(1,10000000)
x;" postgres > /dev/null
psql -c "drop table if exists log_wal;" postgres > /dev/null
psql -c "create table log_wal (lsn pg_lsn not null);" postgres > /dev/null
psql -c "insert into log_wal values(pg_current_wal_lsn());" postgres > /dev/null
pgbench -n -f update.sql -t 60000 -c 200 -j 200 -M prepared postgres > /dev/null
psql -c "select 'Used ' ||
pg_size_pretty(pg_wal_lsn_diff(pg_current_wal_lsn(), lsn)) || ' of
WAL' from log_wal limit 1;" postgres
pg_ctl stop -D pgdata -m immediate -w
echo Starting Postgres...
pg_ctl start -D pgdata -l pg.log
drowley@amd3990x:~$ cat update.sql
\set i random(1,10000000)
update t1 set b = b+1 where a = :i;
