Upgrade to Postgres 11.3 once it's out #50

Closed vito closed 5 years ago

vito commented 5 years ago

Hi there! We on Concourse team are affected by a bug present in Postgres 11.2 that causes Postgres to lock up until it's force-restarted. The fix is expected to be in 11.3, which should be out this week (on May 9) according to their roadmap.

We're at a point where we're evaluating downgrading to to Postgres 9.6, switching to CloudSQL, or just waiting on 11.3 and force-restarting our Postgres whenever it falls over. The last item involves the least amount of work, so I figured I'd open this preemptively in hopes y'all have bandwidth to publish a new release shortly after it's out. 🙂

Alternatively, we may be able to work-around the bug by disabling parallel queries, so no rush.

Thanks!

Fix race conditions in management of dynamic shared memory (Thomas Munro) These could lead to “dsa_area could not attach to segment” or “cannot unpin a segment that is not pinned” errors.
