* Fix problems with cached tuple descriptors disappearing while still in useTom Lane2006-06-16
| | | | | | | | | | by creating a reference-count mechanism, similar to what we did a long time ago for catcache entries. The back branches have an ugly solution involving lots of extra copies, but this way is more efficient. Reference counting is only applied to tupdescs that are actually in caches --- there seems no need to use it for tupdescs that are generated in the executor, since they'll go away during plan shutdown by virtue of being in the per-query memory context. Neil Conway and Tom Lane

* Remove the limit on the number of entries allowed in catcaches, andTom Lane2006-06-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | remove the infrastructure needed to enforce the limit, ie, the global LRU list of cache entries. On small-to-middling databases this wins because maintaining the LRU list is a waste of time. On large databases this wins because it's better to keep more cache entries (we assume such users can afford to use some more per-backend memory than was contemplated in the Berkeley-era catcache design). This provides a noticeable improvement in the speed of psql \d on a 10000-table database, though it doesn't make it instantaneous. While at it, use per-catcache settings for the number of hash buckets per catcache, rather than the former one-size-fits-all value. It's a bit silly to be using the same number of hash buckets for, eg, pg_am and pg_attribute. The specific values I used might need some tuning, but they seem to be in the right ballpark based on CATCACHE_STATS results from the standard regression tests.

* Further thoughts about lo_export/lo_import error handling: if one ofTom Lane2006-06-14
| | | | | | | the lower-level large object functions fails, it will have already set a suitable error message --- probably something from the backend --- and it is not useful to overwrite that with a generic 'error while reading large object' message. So remove redundant messages.
* Clean up psql's control-C handling to avoid longjmp'ing out of randomTom Lane2006-06-14
| | | | | | | | | places --- that risks corrupting data structures, losing sync with the backend, etc. We now longjmp only from calls to readline, fgets, and fread, which we assume are coded to protect themselves against interrupts at undesirable times. This requires adding explicit tests for cancel_pressed in long-running loops, but on the whole it's far cleaner. Martijn van Oosterhout and Tom Lane.
