Actually, since we (mostly you) found explanations for all the
disallowed phenomena, with no PostgreSQL anomalies showing when
using the corrected test code, I was going to call it done. Well,
except that I think some of your tests are interesting enough to ask
whether it was OK to try to integrate some of the related SQL into
C-based tests in the optional PostgreSQL regression tests. (They
probably run too long to include in the main "make check" set.)
If I could get them running in that environment, I think they could
stress a different-enough set of code paths to be worth including.
Regarding the Java code used in your tests, the only issues I found
which I didn't mention to you off list were stylistic or
performance-related. Since the performance issues would apply to
both MySQL and PostgreSQL, I'm not too worried about them in terms
of comparative numbers. I anyone wanted to consider the absolute
numbers as significant, I could pass along a few tips.
