Hi Amit, >But how can we conclude NBuffers/128 is the maximum relation size? >Because the maximum size would be where the performance is worse than >the master, no? I guess we need to try by NBuffers/64, NBuffers/32, >.... till we get the threshold where master performs better. You are right, we should keep on testing until no optimization. >I think we should find a better way to display these numbers because in >cases like where master takes 537.978s and patch takes 3.815s Yeah, I think we can change the %reg formula from (patched- master)/ master to (patched- master)/ patched. >Table size should be more than 8k to get all this data because 8k means >just one block. I guess either it is a typo or some other mistake. 8k here is the relation size, not data size. For example, when I tested recovery performance of 400M relation size, I used 51200 tables(8k per table). Please let me know if you think this is not appropriate.

Because the maximum size would be where the performance is worse than the master, no? I guess we need to try by NBuffers/64,NBuffers/32, .... till we get the threshold where master performs better. > Recovery after vacuum test results as below ' Optimized percentage' and ' Optimization details(unit: second)' shows: > (512),(256),(128): means relation size is NBuffers/512, NBuffers/256, > NBuffers/128 > %reg: means (patched(512)- master(512))/ master(512) > > Optimized percentage: > shared_buffers %reg(512) %reg(256) %reg(128) > ----------------------------------------------------------------- > 128M 0% -1% -1% > 1G -65% -49% -62% > 20G -98% -98% -98% > 50G -99% -99% -99% > > Optimization details(unit: second): > shared_buffers master(512) patched(512) master(256) patched(256) master(128) patched(128) > ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > 128M 0.108 0.108 0.109 0.108 0.109 0.108 > 1G 0.310 0.107 0.410 0.208 0.811 0.309 > 20G 94.493 1.511 188.777 3.014 380.633 6.020 > 50G 537.978 3.815 867.453 7.524 1559.076 15.541 > I think we should find a better way to display these numbers because in cases like where master takes 537.978s and patchtakes 3.815s, it is clear that patch has reduced the time by more than 100 times whereas in your table it shows 99%. > Test prepare: > Below is test table amount for different shared buffers.
