Hi Amit.
Humm, that's... challenging. I faced some issues after "the fix" because I had a couple of transactions with 25k updates, and I had to split it to be able to push to our event messaging system, as our max message size is 10MB. Relying on commit time would mean that all transaction operations will have the same timestamp. If something goes wrong while my worker is pushing that transaction data chunks, I will duplicate some data in the next run, so... this wouldn't allow me to deal with data duplication.
Is there any other way that you see to deal with it?
Right now I only see an option, which is to store all processed LSNs on the other side of the ETL. I'm trying to avoid that overhead.
Thanks.
Regards,
José Neves

I think it should be based on commit_time because as far as I see we
can only get that on the client.
