Yeah, I didn't mean to discount the ability to cancel queries. I just want to confirm how the user can use the cancellation in practice. I didn't see how the user can use the cancellation in the FDW framework, so I asked about it. We have to think about the user's context if we regard canceling commits as important. > > Furthermore, FDW is not cancellable in general.

BTW, speaking of network, how can postgres_fdw respond quickly to cancel request when libpq is waiting for a reply from a down foreign server? Can the user continue to use that session after cancellation? Regards Takayuki Tsunakawa
