===
opening a streamed block for transaction
table public.toasted: INSERT: id[integer]:9001 other[text]:'bbb'
data[text]:'ccc'
table public.toasted: INSERT: id[integer]:9002 other[text]:'ddd'
data[text]:'eee'
table public.toasted: INSERT: id[integer]:9003 other[text]:'bar'
data[text]:'aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
