Hi, I confirm that my analytic workflows often do the CTAS and VACUUM of the relation right after, before the index creation, to mark stuff as all-visible for IOS to work. Freezing and marking as visible will help. Thanks for letting me know there is such a real case in production environment. I attached the short patch. If no more other concerns, I will log the patch on commitfest. -Paul On Wed, Jan 27, 2021 at 12:29 PM Paul Guo <gu...@vmware.com<mailto:gu...@vmware.com>> wrote: Here is the simple patch, diff --git a/src/backend/commands/createas.c b/src/backend/commands/createas.c index dce882012e..0391699423 100644 --- a/src/backend/commands/createas.c +++ b/src/backend/commands/createas.c @@ -552,7 +552,7 @@ intorel_startup(DestReceiver *self, int operation, TupleDesc typeinfo) myState->rel = intoRelationDesc; myState->reladdr = intoRelationAddr; myState->output_cid = GetCurrentCommandId(true); - myState->ti_options = TABLE_INSERT_SKIP_FSM; + myState->ti_options = TABLE_INSERT_SKIP_FSM | TABLE_INSERT_FROZEN; MatView code already does this and COPY does this if specified. I’m not sure how does the community think about this. Actually personally I expect more about the all-visible setting due to TABLE_INSERT_FROZEN since I could easier use index only scan if we create an index and table use CTAS, else people have to use index only scan after vacuum. If people do not expect freeze could we at least introduce a option to specify the visibility during inserting? Regards, Paul
