Oh, ok. I see it now. It turned out that "number of transactions
retried" does not actually means the number of transactions
rtried. Suppose pgbench exectutes following in a session:
BEGIN; -- transaction A starts
:
(ERROR)
ROLLBACK; -- transaction A aborts
(retry)
BEGIN; -- transaction B starts
:
(ERROR)
ROLLBACK; -- transaction B aborts
(retry)
BEGIN; -- transaction C starts
:
END; -- finally succeeds
In this case "total number of retries:" = 2 and "number of
transactions retried:" = 1. In this patch transactions A, B and C are
regarded as "same" transaction, so the retried transaction count
becomes 1. But it's confusing to use the language "transaction" here
because A, B and C are different transactions. I would think it's
better to use different language instead of "transaction", something
like "cycle"? i.e.
number of cycles retried: 35 (35.000%)
Best reagards,
