I see...
I checked part of HOT patches(patch1), and found that it involves too
many things I am not currently familar with. Maybe I should change an
item to work. :-(
Since I only studied part of source codes about transaction
processing(lmgr/MVCC/xact but without xlog.c), I want to study
"Group Commit" patch and try to review it, any suggestions?
