    Hi,

https://buildfarm.postgresql.org/cgi-bin/show_log.pl?nm=skink&dt=2018-03-31%2014%3A40%3A02
isolation-check (02:19:36)

isolation-check (00:18:44)

As far as I can tell that increase comes laregely from the new GIN
tests.  Could one of you please look at keeping the test time increase
to something more reasonable?

Greetings,

Andres Freund

Ping?

It's also one of the slowest tests outside of valgrind...

While trying to reduce isolation test suite for GIN, I found following
behavior surprising for me.

GinBtreeStack *
ginFindLeafPage(GinBtree btree, bool searchMode, Snapshot snapshot)
{
    GinBtreeStack *stack;

    stack = (GinBtreeStack *) palloc(sizeof(GinBtreeStack));
    stack->blkno = btree->rootBlkno;
    stack->buffer = ReadBuffer(btree->index, btree->rootBlkno);
    stack->parent = NULL;
    stack->predictNumber = 1;

    if (!searchMode)
        CheckForSerializableConflictIn(btree->index, NULL, stack->buffer);

So, we're checking for conflict on tree root for every entry insert.
That's right for posting tree, but completely unneeded for entry tree.
I'm intended to change that to lock root of only posting tree if
nobody explains me why I'm wrong...

BTW, patch for reducing isolation testing for gin predicate locking is
attached.  Could anybody check its execution time with valgrind (and
compare with execution time of previous test suite)?

Will try if I get some time to spare in the next 72 hours or so

BTW, I've tried to remove conflict checking from entry tree root
(patch is attached).  Neither current or my version of isolation tests
appear to be affected.

Given no comments yet, I'll commit this on no objection.

I've managed to run it myself.  I've added following lines to
src/test/isolation/Makefile to make it handy running these tests under
valgrind.

ifdef VALGRIND
override with_temp_install += PGCTLTIMEOUT=600 \
    valgrind --leak-check=no --gen-suppressions=all \
    --suppressions=../../tools/valgrind.supp --time-stamp=yes \
    --log-file=pid-%p.log --trace-children=yes \
    --trace-children-skip=*/initdb
endif

With only predicate-gin in isolation_schedule patched version takes
less than minute.

real 0m53.866s
user 0m9.472s
sys 0m1.706s

I also run unpatched version of predicate-gin test, but cancel that
after 30 minutes of waiting.  So, it appears that patch solves the
problem.  I'm going to commit it if no objections.

The latest test on lousyjack ran with this applied. The isolation tests
went from 285 minutes to 65 minutes.


So +1 for applying this.
