From fb0b5b0b84a0a07d722f67fee1da8d2541f84172 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tomas Vondra Date: Wed, 27 Mar 2019 02:39:39 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] Track unowned relations in doubly-linked list Relations dropped in a single transaction are tracked in a list of unowned relations. With large number of dropped relations this resulted in poor performance at the end of a transaction, when the relations are removed from the singly linked list one by one. Commit b4166911 attempted to address this issue (particularly when it happens during recovery) by removing the relations in a reverse order, resulting in O(1) lookups in the list of unowned relations. This did not work reliably, though, and it was possible to trigger the O(N^2) behavior in various ways. Instead of trying to remove the relations in a specific order with respect to the linked list, which seems rather fragile, switch to a regular doubly linked. That allows us to remove relations cheaply no matter where in the list they are. As b4166911 was a bugfix, backpatched to all supported versions, do the same thing here.
