Maybe. I tried using this, and I just got a seg fault within that code. I can't figure out if I called it incorrectly
orif the buffer
involved is so damaged that PrintBufferLeakWarning chokes on it. I'll
look at that myself later.
I did get some output from the variation Andres suggested. There was
exactly one screwed up buffer:
2012-12-24 06:08:46 EST [26015]: WARNING: refcount of base/16384/49169
is 1073741824 should be 0, globally: 0
That is pgbench_accounts_pkey. 1073741824 =
0100 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 = 2^30
Pretty odd value to find in a PrivateRefCount. What makes me nervous
about all of the PrivateRefCount coding is how it switches between
references like PrivateRefCount[(bufnum) - 1] and PrivateRefCount[b].
Might this be an off by one error in one of those, where the wrong form
was used?
