Logical replication from physical standbys on WAL shipping
Refine recovery pause behavior, crash safety, promotion, and auto-resume.
session summary
The group inspected two AI-produced patch branches for pausing archive recovery when replay would invalidate a logical slot. They reconstructed the patch series, reviewed synchronized-slot and promotion behavior, and clarified that dirty slot state is only persisted at restart points, weakening crash guarantees. The concrete conclusion was to favor correctness, consolidate the work into one reviewable three-patch series, preserve readable code over premature lock optimization, and target the July CommitFest after further testing.
