+ Fix <command>CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY</command> to wait for
+ concurrent prepared transactions (Andrey Borodin)
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ At the point where <command>CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY</command>
+ waits for all concurrent transactions to complete so that it can see
+ rows they inserted, it must also wait for all prepared transactions
+ to complete, for the same reason. Its failure to do so meant that
+ rows inserted by prepared transactions might be omitted from the new
+ index, causing queries relying on the index to miss such rows.
+ In installations that have enabled prepared transactions
+ (<varname>max_prepared_transactions</varname> &gt; 0),
+ it's recommended to reindex any concurrently-built indexes in
+ case this problem occurred when they were built.

+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ The main loop in <filename>contrib/pg_prewarm</filename>'s
+ autoprewarm parent process underestimated its desired sleep time by
+ a factor of 1000, causing it to consume much more CPU than intended.
+ When waiting for a result from a remote

+ desired timeout by a factor of 1000 (though this error had been
+ mitigated by imposing a clamp to 60 seconds).
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ Both of these errors stemmed from incorrectly converting
+ seconds-and-microseconds to milliseconds. Introduce a new
+ API <function>TimestampDifferenceMilliseconds()</function>
+ to make it easier to get this right in the future.
