From c17e863bc7677a54d6da5bbb2868cca2cd9b30c1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tom Lane Date: Wed, 4 Apr 2012 15:05:10 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] Fix syslogger to not lose log coherency under high load. The original coding of the syslogger had an arbitrary limit of 20 large messages concurrently in progress, after which it would just punt and dump message fragments to the output file separately. Our ambitions are a bit higher than that now, so allow the data structure to expand as necessary.
