Hi,
I reported a bug aobut it earlier, and from what I know it has been
fixed, but new release will come later.
For now I have this situation:
1. max_replication_slots is 50
2. database to replicate has 67 schemas, and ~ 26k tables.
3. schemas are split into 5 slots
4. pg14 side has max_sync_workers_per_subscription = 2
we start replication. within an hour all 50 replication slots on pg12
are used. 5 by our pg14 upgrade slots, and the other *45* by sync
workers, which are generally active = false.
at this moment all sync traffic dies (seen in network traffic data).
we tried to kill inactive sync workers - didn't help.
I tried to set max_sync_workers_per_subscription = 0, to avoid using
these extra workers, but it just seems to make slots sit there. 1 table
in each slot changed status to 'r', but all other are at 'i'.
Currently I'm running a test where all tables are in single slot, with
2 max_sync_workers_per_subscription but it will take "a while" to get it
to working state.
Is there anything we can do now?
I seem to have a case where the problem is 100% repeatable, so if anyone
has ideas I can test them fully.
Best regards,
depesz
