Using:
0001-Introduce-logical_work_mem-to-limit-ReorderBuffer-v2.patch
0002-Issue-XLOG_XACT_ASSIGNMENT-with-wal_level-logical-v2.patch
0003-Issue-individual-invalidations-with-wal_level-log-v2.patch
0004-Extend-the-output-plugin-API-with-stream-methods-v2.patch
0005-Implement-streaming-mode-in-ReorderBuffer-v2.patch
0006-Add-support-for-streaming-to-built-in-replication-v2.patch
As you expected the problem is the same with these new patches.
I have now tested more, and seen that it not always fails. I guess that
it here fails 3 times out of 4. But the laptop I'm using at the moment
is old and slow -- it may well be a factor as we've seen before [1].
Attached is the bash that I put together. I tested with
NUM_INSTANCES=2, which yields success, and NUM_INSTANCES=3, which fails
often. This same program run with HEAD never seems to fail (I tried a
few dozen times).
thanks,
Erik Rijkers
