* Revert "Avoid the creation of the free space map for small heap relations".Amit Kapila2019-05-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This feature was using a process local map to track the first few blocks in the relation. The map was reset each time we get the block with enough freespace. It was discussed that it would be better to track this map on a per-relation basis in relcache and then invalidate the same whenever vacuum frees up some space in the page or when FSM is created. The new design would be better both in terms of API design and performance.

* Avoid creation of the free space map for small heap relations, take 2.Amit Kapila2019-02-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, all heaps had FSMs. For very small tables, this means that the FSM took up more space than the heap did. This is wasteful, so now we refrain from creating the FSM for heaps with 4 pages or fewer. If the last known target block has insufficient space, we still try to insert into some other page before giving up and extending the relation, since doing otherwise leads to table bloat. Testing showed that trying every page penalized performance slightly, so we compromise and try every other page. This way, we visit at most two pages. Any pages with wasted free space become visible at next relation extension, so we still control table bloat. As a bonus, directly attempting one or two pages can even be faster than consulting the FSM would have been. Once the FSM is created for a heap we don't remove it even if somebody deletes all the rows from the corresponding relation. We don't think it is a useful optimization as it is quite likely that relation will again grow to the same size.

* Rethink the way FSM truncation works. Instead of WAL-logging FSMHeikki Linnakangas2008-11-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | truncations in FSM code, call FreeSpaceMapTruncateRel from smgr_redo. To make that cleaner from modularity point of view, move the WAL-logging one level up to RelationTruncate, and move RelationTruncate and all the related WAL-logging to new src/backend/catalog/storage.c file. Introduce new RelationCreateStorage and RelationDropStorage functions that are used instead of calling smgrcreate/smgrscheduleunlink directly. Move the pending rel deletion stuff from smgrcreate/smgrscheduleunlink to the new functions. This leaves smgr.c as a thin wrapper around md.c; all the transactional stuff is now in storage.c. This will make it easier to add new forks with similar truncation logic, like the visibility map.

* Rewrite the FSM. Instead of relying on a fixed-size shared memory segment, theHeikki Linnakangas2008-09-30
free space information is stored in a dedicated FSM relation fork, with each relation (except for hash indexes; they don't use FSM). This eliminates the max_fsm_relations and max_fsm_pages GUC options; remove any trace of them from the backend, initdb, and documentation. Rewrite contrib/pg_freespacemap to match the new FSM implementation. Also introduce a new variant of the get_raw_page(regclass, int4, int4) function in contrib/pageinspect that let's you to return pages from any relation fork, and a new fsm_page_contents() function to inspect the new FSM pages.
