Do you have any documentation on the approaches used, and the specific
differences between v3 and v4? I don't see much of that in your
initial mail, and the patches themselves also don't show much of that

the table to commit (thus all
bitmaps would be dropped), similar to REINDEX CONCURRENTLY's wait
phase, but that would slow down vacuum's ability to clean up old data
significantly, and change overall vacuum behaviour in a fundamental
way. I'm quite opposed to such a change.

PS.
I don't think the optimization itself is completely impossible, and we
can probably re-enable an optimization like that if (or when) we find
a way to reliably keep

conditions apply, based on flags and specific API used), so, assuming
we have some control on where to allocate memory, we should be able to
reserve enough memory by using these APIs.

want to have lost that data.
Same applies for ~scans~ searches: If we do an index search, we should
show it in the count as total sum, not partial processed value. If a
user is interested in per-loopcount values, then they can derive that
value from the data they're presented with; but that isn't true when
we present only the divided-and-rounded value.

dfuncs.c, and/or the usage of
pg_node_tree for (among others) views, index/default expressions,
constraints, and partition bounds would maybe be useful as well.

Agreed.

d size. This is different from smgrwrite, which tries to write
again when FileWriteV returns a short write. Should smgrextendv do
retries, too?

merge into that heap, it'll re-initialize the bulk writer, which will thus
overwrite the previous rewrites' pages. The pre-PG17 rewriteheap.c doesn't
use that API, and thus isn't affected.
I've CC-ed Heikki as author of that patch; maybe a new API to indicate bulk
eve your understanding may be quite out of date. Not all planner
or executor features and optimizations are explicitly present in the
output of EXPLAIN, and the examples all indicate you may be working
with an outdated view of Postgres' capabilities.

required skip arrays for all attributes that don't yet have an
equality key and which are ahead of any (in)equality keys, except the
case with row compare keys which I already commented on above.

I'm not sure why this is included in utils
There is
no SQL standard-prescribed COMMENT command (if our current docs are to
be believed, I don't have a recent version of ISO 9075 to verify that
claim).
Maybe: "Do not dump database object comments", or "Do not dump COMMENT
ON ... -commands"?

PS. I have other complaints about timestamp-based
replication/snapshots, but unless someone thinks otherwise and/or it
is made relevant I'll consider that off-topic.
