I think you're worrying about a non-problem. This code has not been back-patched prior to 9.5, and the legacy truncation code has been removed in 9.5+. So it's a complete non-issue right at the moment. If at some point we back-patch this further, then it potentially becomes a live issue, but I would like to respectfully inquire what exactly you think making it a PANIC would accomplish? There are a lot of scary things about this patch, but the logic for deciding whether to perform a legacy truncation is solid as far as I know. -- Robert Haas EnterpriseDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise PostgreSQL Company -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
