Thread: Commitfest 2018-07 RFC items
As will be seen in the summary below, I think a good many of the RCF items in the commitfest probably aren't. More than half of them need more review, as I read the mailing list threads. I propose to move them all to the next CF, but in many cases after changing the to "needs review" or in one case "waiting on author". One big wart remains in this list - the Fix LWLock degradation on NUMA patch. Some committer who is comfortable in this area needs to pick it up, or of we don't have such a person we should reject it instead of making it go round and round like the Flying Dutchman.

Hello Andrew, > https://commitfest.postgresql.org/18/669/ pgbench - allow to store select > results into variables > Latest patch has not been reviewed > Recommendation: change to "needs review" and move AFAICS the latest patch is a trivial rebase after some perl automatic indentation changes, there was no new contents per se. -- Fabien
