Hi, The new WAL format calculates FPI vs plain record data like: rec_len = XLogRecGetDataLen(record) + SizeOfXLogRecord; fpi_len = record->decoded_record->xl_tot_len - rec_len;
Due to the amount of data now handled outside the main data portion , that doesn't seem correct to me. As an example, a couple thousand inserts with full_page_writes=off now yields: Type N (%) Record size (%) FPI size (%) Combined size (%) ---- - --- ----------- --- -------- --- ------------- --- Heap/INSERT 30167 ( 99.53) 814509 ( 99.50) 965856 ( 99.54) 1780365 ( 99.52) I think fpi_len now needs to only count the sum of the of the actual length of block images, and all the rest needs to be rec_len.
