Aaah, hit enter too soon. Also see the other changes under Changes that apply to multixact in 9.3.5
Thanks for sharing same. Found this one interesting "Truncate pg_multixact during checkpoints, not during VACUUM (Álvaro Herrera)" and also other changes. But am not sure are you suggesting to move to 9.3.5 ?
Actually looking for some guidelines on truncating pg_multixact at this situation.
- Do I need to run vaccum manually here and then the pg_multixact can be truncated? - Actually looking out for some hints wherein can know the current pg_multixact/members which are active and which one are stale which can be truncated? Is there any query to find this information?
pg_class.relminmxid can be referred but should I change the value of autovacuum_multixact_freeze_max_age which defaults to 400 million multixacts, setting this value to lower limits would help in cleaning up pg_multixact?
