I'm interested in your multiworkers autovacuum proposal.
I'm researching the impact of multiworkers with autovacuum_vacuum_cost_limit.
Autovacuum will consume server resources up to autovacuum_max_workers times
as many as before. I think we might need to change the semantics of
autovacuum_vacuum_cost_limit when we have multiworkers.
BTW, I found an unwitting mistake in the foreach_worker() macro.
These two operations are same in C.
- worker + 1
- (WorkerInfo *) (((char *) worker) + sizeof(WorkerInfo))
#define foreach_worker(_i, _worker) \
_worker = (WorkerInfo *) (AutoVacuumShmem + \
offsetof(AutoVacuumShmemStruct, av_workers)); \
for (_i = 0; _i < autovacuum_max_workers; _i++, _worker += sizeof(WorkerInfo))
should be:
#define foreach_worker(_worker) \
for ((_worker) = AutoVacuumShmem->av_workers; \
(_worker) < AutoVacuumShmem->av_workers + autovacuum_max_workers; \
(_worker)++)
