Hi Tom,
Thanks for the extensive reply.
The issue I am trying to resolve is that if two scans are taking place
on the same backend(due to the same query),then,the server is
crashing.
e.g. foreign_table is a foreign table
SELECT * FROM foreign_table UNION SELECT * FROM foreign_table; results
in a crash of the server.
I think it is because I am not saving the state of the scan,so,if
multiple scans a re running on the same backend,then,it is causing the
crash.
Any hints on how I can detect this condition please?
