<listitem><para>Prevent possible loss of committed transactions during crash</para> |
|
|
|
|
<para> |
|
|
|
|
Due to insufficient interlocking between transaction commit and checkpointing, |
|
|
|
|
it was possible for transactions committed just before the most recent |
|
|
|
|
checkpoint to be lost, in whole or in part, following a database crash and |
|
|
|
|
restart. This is a serious bug that has existed |
|
|
|
|
since <productname>PostgreSQL</productname> 7.1. |
