Subject: Reduce size of two phase file header
X-Git-Tag: REL9_6_BETA1~535
X-Git-Url: https://granicus.if.org/sourcecode?a=commitdiff_plain;h=e0694cf9c74455fb87beb0f4d66b4c8f5f53715e;p=postgresql

Reduce size of two phase file header

Previously 2PC header was fixed at 200 bytes, which in most cases wasted
WAL space for a workload using 2PC heavily.
