I started doing small comment cleanups, but then the changes
spread out a bit...
Kyotaro-san, please review. If you don't find anything to fix,
then it's ready for commiter, I think.
Changes:
== dblink ==
- Increase area in bigger steps
- Fix realloc leak on failure
== libpq ==
- Replace dynamic stack array with malloced rowBuf on PGconn.
It is only increased, never decreased.
- Made PGresult.rowProcessorErrMsg allocated with pqResultStrdup.
Seems more proper. Although it would be even better to
use ->errmsg for it, but it's lifetime and usage
are unclear to me.
- Removed the rowProcessor, rowProcessorParam from PGresult.
They are unnecessary there.
- Move conditional msg outside from libpq_gettext()
- Removed the unnecessary memcpy() from pqAddRow
- Moved PQregisterRowProcessor to fe-exec.c, made pqAddRow static.
- Restored pqAddTuple export.
- Renamed few symbols:
PQregisterRowProcessor -> PQsetRowProcessor
RowProcessor -> PQrowProcessor
Mes -> Msg (more common abbreviation)
- Updated some comments
- Updated sgml doc
== Benchmark ==
I did try to benchmark whether the patch affects stock libpq usage.
But, uh, could not draw any conclusions. It *seems* that patch is
bit faster with few columns, bit slower with many, but the difference
seems smaller than test noise. OTOH, the test noise is pretty big,
so maybe I don't have stable-enough setup to properly benchmark.
As the test-app does not actually touch resultset, it seems probable
that application that actually does something with resultset,
will no see the difference.
It would be nice if anybody who has stable pgbench setup could
run few tests to see whether the patch moves things either way.
Just in case, I attached the minimal test files.
