Hi, I reviewed the code and I have couple of questions about
following code:
/* may have negative size here if new tuple is larger */ size_diff = oldsize - alignednewsize; offset =
ItemIdGetOffset(tupid);
if (offset < phdr->pd_upper || (offset + size_diff) >
phdr->pd_special || offset != MAXALIGN(offset) || size_diff != MAXALIGN(size_diff)) ereport(ERROR,
(errcode(ERRCODE_DATA_CORRUPTED), errmsg("corrupted item offset: offset = %u, size = %u",
offset, (unsigned int) size_diff)));
First of all, shouldn't we use MAXALIGN(oldsize) instead of oldsize?
Although, I'm quite sure that it was already aligned somewhere before.
I doubt that the check (size_diff != MAXALIGN(size_diff)) is necessary.
I'd rather add the check: (offset+size_diff < pd_lower).
Besides that moment, the patch seems pretty good.
BTW, I'm very surprised that it improves performance so much.
And also size is reduced significantly. 89MB against 289MB without patch.
Could you explain in details, why does it happen?
