Hi,

http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2010-11/msg01303.php

When I did unusual operations (e.g., suspend bgwriter by gdb,
pgbench -i and issue txid_current many times) on the master
in order to try to reproduce the above HS error, I encountered
the following assertion error.

Since I compiled the standby postgres with WAL_DEBUG and
ran it with wal_debug = on, all the replayed WAL records were
logged.

Does anyone know what the cause of the problem is?
