I think PageClearAllVisible should clear both, and there should be no other macro. There is no event that causes a page to cease being all-visible that does not also cause it to cease being all-frozen. You might think that deleting or locking a tuple would fall into that category - but nope, XMAX needs to be cleared or the tuple pruned, or there will be problems after wraparound. -- 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
