Any idea why I don't see it on 8.3.4?
I think it's more likely some small difference in your test conditions
than any real version-to-version difference. In particular I think the
"still see" test might be influenced by the ages of transactions running
concurrently.
Interesting. This is on a test server which has no other concurrent
transactions and it acts the same way after I stopped 8.3.4 and started up
8.3.3 again as it did before stopping 8.3.3 to bring up 8.3.4. Hrmm..I'm not
sure that makes sense. So, I did the test with the sql script on 8.3.3, then
shut down 8.3.3, started up 8.3.4 on the same data dir, ran the test
successfully. Next I shut down 8.3.4 and started 8.3.3 and verified that the
behavior was still the same on 8.3.3. I wonder what else I might be doing
differently.
Huh. That does sound like it's a version-to-version difference.
There's nothing in the CVS log that seems related though. Are you
willing to post your test case?
It's a customer DB, so I'll contact them and see if we can boil it down to a test case with no sensitive data.
