But why did you enable only subscription by default while publication is
disabled by default (i.e., wal_level != logical)? I think that it's better to
enable both by default OR disable both by default.
While I was reading the logical rep code, I found that
logicalrep_worker_launch returns *without* releasing LogicalRepWorkerLock
when there is no unused worker slot. This seems a bug.
/* Report this after the initial starting message for consistency. */ if (max_replication_slots == 0)
ereport(ERROR, (errcode(ERRCODE_CONFIGURATION_LIMIT_EXCEEDED), errmsg("cannot start logical
replicationworkers when
max_replication_slots = 0")));
logicalrep_worker_launch checks max_replication_slots as above.
Why does it need to check that setting value in the *subscriber* side?
Maybe I'm missing something here, but ISTM that the subscription uses
one replication slot in *publisher* side but doesn't use in *subscriber* side.
* The apply worker may spawn additional workers (sync) for initial data * synchronization of tables.
The above header comment in logical/worker.c is true?
The copyright in each file that the commit of logical rep added needs to
be updated.
