Has anybody looked at getting test coverage for the retry path? Not with
the goal of triggering an assertion, just to have at least basic
coverage.
The problem with writing a test is likely to find a way to halfway
reliably schedule a transaction abort after pruning, but before the
tuple-removal loop? Does anybody see a trick to do so?
