Hi Seniors,

I recently configured PostgreSQL with a custom blocksize:

./configure --with-blocksize=32
make && make check
OR
make && make check-world

This produced so many regression failures. I'm wondering, are such failures typical/expected when altering the default block size?
I came across a related discussion, but it dates back more than a decade. It would be great to get current perspectives.

Thanks,

Yasir
