Does it also include CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE, because there's DROP?
I remember that repeated CREATE and DROP of temporary tables should be avoided in PostgreSQL. Dropped temporary tables
leavesome unused memory in CacheMemoryContext. If creation and deletion of temporary tables are done per row in a
singlesession, say loading of large amount of data, memory bloat could crash the OS. That actually happened at a
user'senvironment.
Plus, repeated create/drop may cause system catalog bloat as well even when they are performed in different sessions.
Ina fortunate case, the garbage records gather at the end of the system tables, and autovacuum will free those empty
areasby truncating data files. However, if some valid entry persists after the long garbage area, the system tables
wouldremain bloated.
What kind of workload and data are you targeting with IVM?
