Clearly 018_wal_optimize.pl is flapping and causing recoveryCheck to
fail occasionally, but that predates the above commit.  I didn't
follow the existing discussion on that, so I'll try to look into that
tomorrow.

Here's a rebase of the 0002 patch, now called 0001

Commits

Same data as JSON: GET /api/v1/messages/:b64id/commits the thread's linked commits as JSON, with link sources. API reference →

  1. Fix recovery_prefetch docs.

  2. Prefetch data referenced by the WAL, take II.

  3. Add circular WAL decoding buffer, take II.

  4. Fix generation of ./INSTALL for the distribution tarball

  5. Revert recovery prefetching feature.

  6. Sync guc.c and postgresql.conf.sample with the SGML docs.

  7. Add information of total data processed to replication slot stats.

  8. Doc: Review for "Optionally prefetch referenced data in recovery."

  9. Add circular WAL decoding buffer.

  10. Optionally prefetch referenced data in recovery.

  11. Remove read_page callback from XLogReader.

  12. Provide ReadRecentBuffer() to re-pin buffers by ID.

  13. Provide recovery_init_sync_method=syncfs.

  14. Mark factorial operator, and postfix operators in general, as deprecated.

  15. Rationalize GetWalRcv{Write,Flush}RecPtr().

  16. Support PrefetchBuffer() in recovery.

  17. Prevent hard failures of standbys caused by recycled WAL segments
