Update from Massimo

25 years agoHi,
Bruce Momjian [Sat, 5 Jun 1999 19:09:48 +0000 (19:09 +0000)]
Hi,

I have updated my contrib code for version 6.5. In the attachment you will
find the directories array, datetime, miscutil, string, tools and userlocks
which replace the corresponding directories under contrib.

In contrib/tools you will find some developement scripts which I use while
hacking the sources. I hope they will be useful for some other people.

I have also added a contrib/Makefile which tries to compile and install all
the contribs. Unfortunately many of them don't have a Makefile or don't
compile cleanly.

25 years agoRepair performance problem in SI segment manipulations: iterating
Tom Lane [Fri, 28 May 1999 17:03:31 +0000 (17:03 +0000)]
Repair performance problem in SI segment manipulations: iterating
through MAXBACKENDS array entries used to be fine when MAXBACKENDS = 64.
It's not so cool with MAXBACKENDS = 1024 (or more!), especially not in a
frequently-used routine like SIDelExpiredDataEntries.  Repair by making
procState array size be the soft MaxBackends limit rather than the hard
limit, and by converting SIGetProcStateLimit() to a macro.

When closure of the backend connection is detected during pqFlush,
do the right thing: look for a NOTICE message from the backend before we
close our side of the socket.  6.4 libpq did not reliably print the backend's
hara-kiri message, 'The Postmaster has informed me ...', because it only
