Disable vacuum's use of a buffer access strategy during failsafe
Traditionally, vacuum always makes use of a buffer access strategy 32 buffers in size. This means that running vacuums tend not to cause too many shared buffers to become dirty, however, this can cause vacuums to run much more slowly than they otherwise could as WAL flushes will occur more frequently due to having to flush WAL out to the LSN of the dirty page before that page can be written to disk. When we are performing failsafe VACUUMs (as added in1e55e7d17
), we really want to make the vacuum work go as quickly as possible, so here we disable the buffer access strategy when entering failsafe mode while vacuuming a relation. Per idea and analyis from Andres Freund. In passing, also include some changes I had intended for32fbe0239
