So, if i have the following transaction:
begin work;
select * from students where a age=19 for update;
lock table studens in share mode;
commit;
The TupleTable will exist for the query from the point the query is made
untill the transaction is committed? or does the TupleTable go away as soon
as query is finished executing?
I would think the TupleTable for that query is held untill the transaction
is committed since lock on the tuple is endtill the end of transaction
Thanks
