The one here:
commit 978b2f65aa1262eb4ecbf8b3785cb1b9cf4db78e
Author: Simon Riggs <simon@2ndQuadrant.com>
Date: Wed Jan 20 18:40:44 2016 -0800
Speedup 2PC by skipping two phase state files in normal path
I thought there was a second commit in the series, but I guess that is
still just proposed. I've haven't tested that one, just the committed
one.
I've repeated the crash/recovery/wrap-around testing with the proposed
fix in place, and this pre-existing problem seems to be fixed now, and
I have found no other problems.
I've attached a new version, incorporating comments from Tom and Michael.
Cheers,
Jeff
