Yeah, same here.

Another possible problem is, probably the code does not work well if
there are multiple partitions. Since win_nonnulls stores currentpos in
a partition, when the partition ends, win_nonnulls needs to be
reset. Otherwise, it mistakenly represents currentpos in the previous
partition.

Best reagards,
