Sorry, that was probably too terse, I should explain that a little.
After initing 50 instances, I set up and run a pgbench session in the
master session; the pgbench lines are:
init: pgbench --port=6515 --quiet --initialize --scale=1 postgres
run: pgbench -M prepared -c 16 -j 8 -T 1 -P 1 -n postgres -- scale 1
the other instances then catch up. The whole takes 5 minutes or so
I vary scale, duration, and number of instances. I haven't had it fail
in this way yet but I mostly tried with lower number of instances (up to
25 or so).
