Using:

0001-Introduce-logical_work_mem-to-limit-ReorderBuffer-v2.patch
0002-Issue-XLOG_XACT_ASSIGNMENT-with-wal_level-logical-v2.patch
0003-Issue-individual-invalidations-with-wal_level-log-v2.patch
0004-Extend-the-output-plugin-API-with-stream-methods-v2.patch
0005-Implement-streaming-mode-in-ReorderBuffer-v2.patch
0006-Add-support-for-streaming-to-built-in-replication-v2.patch

As you expected the problem is the same with these new patches.

I have now tested more, and seen that it not always fails.  I guess that 
it here fails 3 times out of 4.  But the laptop I'm using at the moment 
is old and slow -- it may well be a factor as we've seen before [1].

Attached is the bash that I put together.  I tested with 
NUM_INSTANCES=2, which yields success, and NUM_INSTANCES=3, which fails 
often.  This same program run with HEAD never seems to fail (I tried a 
few dozen times).

thanks,

Erik Rijkers
