Andres Freund cf051c4f9d Fix logical decoding bug leading to inefficient reopening of files.
When spilling transaction data to disk a simple typo caused the output
file to be closed and reopened for every serialized change. That happens
to not have a huge impact on linux, which is why it probably wasn't
noticed so far, but on windows that appears to trigger actual disk
writes after every change. Not fun.

The bug fortunately does not have any impact besides speed. A change
could end up being in the wrong segment (last instead of next), but
since we read all files to the end, that's just ugly, not really
problematic. It's not a problem to upgrade, since transaction spill
files do not persist across restarts.

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================

This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

	http://www.postgresql.org/download

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
http://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
