Also on similar lines, I think we Absolutely.

You may need small > changes based on the branch you are working on. That will be complicated. Changing pg (recompile, and rerun) requires careful preparation with our customers. Which takes time. Additionally we are using precompiled binaries from pgdg, that makes the process slightly more involved. And to top it off, as I mailed in the other message - the problem doesn't happen always. For 8 clusters that I tried to prepare problem happened on two, and on one of them (this one actually) it kinda solved on its own?! I know I'm asking a lot, but is there any chance we could setup conference/shared screen session to try to get as much data as possible out of the situations we have now? Of course that would be paid consulting. If you're OK with it, please mail me off list, so we can arrange it. Best regards, depesz
