+-- Terminate the remote backend having the specified application_name and wait +-- for the termination to complete. 10 seconds timeout here is chosen randomly, +-- we will see a warning if the process doesn't go away within that time. +SELECT pg_terminate_backend(pid, 10000) FROM pg_stat_activity + WHERE application_name = 'fdw_retry_check'; I think that you are making the tests less stable by doing that. A couple of buildfarm machines are very slow, and 10 seconds would not be enough. So it seems to me that this patch is trading what is a stable solution for a solution that may finish by randomly bite. -- Michael
