I assume it is this TODO item:
o Prevent long-lived temporary tables from causing frozen-xid advancement starvation
The problem is that autovacuum cannot vacuum them to set frozen xids; only the session that created
themcan do that. http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-general/2007-06/msg01645.php
but am confused how the fix worked. Have all of these backends been
active for 1 billion transactions?
