The conversion is now handled by SnapBuildMVCCFromHistoric(). REPACK
CONCURRENTLY will also need it.

* [PATCH 3/3] Distinguish properly when database-specific transaction list should be used.

Currently, decoding session that relies on database-specific xl_running_xacts
WAL records can also use some information of cluster-wide records and vice
versa. Although this approach might reduce the total number of
xl_running_xacts records, it's simply not correct.

SnapBuildProcessRunningXacts() now decides at the very beginning whether
particular record can be used or not.

* [PATCH 3/3] Distinguish properly when database-specific transaction list should be used.

Currently, decoding session that relies on database-specific xl_running_xacts
WAL records can also use some information of cluster-wide records and vice
versa. Although this approach might reduce the total number of
xl_running_xacts records, it's simply not correct.

SnapBuildProcessRunningXacts() now decides at the very beginning whether
particular record can be used or not.

Currently, decoding session that relies on database-specific xl_running_xacts
WAL records can also use some information of cluster-wide records and vice
versa. Although this approach might reduce the total number of
xl_running_xacts records, it's simply not correct.

particular record can be used or not.

Currently, decoding session that relies on database-specific xl_running_xacts
WAL records can also use some information of cluster-wide records and vice
versa. Although this approach might reduce the total number of
xl_running_xacts records, it's simply not correct.

SnapBuildProcessRunningXacts() now decides at the very beginning whether
particular record can be used or not.

Currently, decoding session that relies on database-specific xl_running_xacts
WAL records can also use some information of cluster-wide records and vice
versa. Although this approach might reduce the total number of
xl_running_xacts records, it's simply not correct.

SnapBuildProcessRunningXacts() now decides at the very beginning whether
particular record can be used or not.

Currently, decoding session that relies on database-specific xl_running_xacts
WAL records can also use some information of cluster-wide records and vice
versa. Although this approach might reduce the total number of
xl_running_xacts records, it's simply not correct.

SnapBuildProcessRunningXacts() now decides at the very beginning whether
particular record can be used or not.

Currently, decoding session that relies on database-specific xl_running_xacts
WAL records can also use some information of cluster-wide records and vice
versa. Although this approach might reduce the total number of
xl_running_xacts records, it's simply not correct.

SnapBuildProcessRunningXacts() now decides at the very beginning whether
particular record can be used or not.

Currently, decoding session that relies on database-specific xl_running_xacts
WAL records can also use some information of cluster-wide records and vice
versa. Although this approach might reduce the total number of
xl_running_xacts records, it's simply not correct.

SnapBuildProcessRunningXacts() now decides at the very beginning whether
particular record can be used or not.

* [PATCH 3/3] Distinguish properly when database-specific transaction list should be used.

Currently, decoding session that relies on database-specific xl_running_xacts
WAL records can also use some information of cluster-wide records and vice
versa. Although this approach might reduce the total number of
xl_running_xacts records, it's simply not correct.

SnapBuildProcessRunningXacts() now decides at the very beginning whether
particular record can be used or not.

Currently, decoding session that relies on database-specific xl_running_xacts
WAL records can also use some information of cluster-wide records and vice
versa. Although this approach might reduce the total number of
xl_running_xacts records, it's simply not correct.

SnapBuildProcessRunningXacts() now decides at the very beginning whether
particular record can be used or not.

Currently, decoding session that relies on database-specific xl_running_xacts
WAL records can also use some information of cluster-wide records and vice
versa. Although this approach might reduce the total number of
xl_running_xacts records, it's simply not correct.

SnapBuildProcessRunningXacts() now decides at the very beginning whether
particular record can be used or not.

* [PATCH] Distinguish properly when database-specific transaction list should be used.

Currently, decoding session that relies on database-specific xl_running_xacts
WAL records can also use some information of cluster-wide records and vice
versa. Although this approach might reduce the total number of
xl_running_xacts records, it's simply not correct.

SnapBuildProcessRunningXacts() now decides at the very beginning whether
particular record can be used or not.

Currently, decoding session that relies on database-specific xl_running_xacts
WAL records can also use some information of cluster-wide records and vice
versa. Although this approach might reduce the total number of
xl_running_xacts records, it's simply not correct.

SnapBuildProcessRunningXacts() now decides at the very beginning whether
particular record can be used or not.

Currently, decoding session that relies on database-specific xl_running_xacts
WAL records can also use some information of cluster-wide records and vice
versa. Although this approach might reduce the total number of
xl_running_xacts records, it's simply not correct.

SnapBuildProcessRunningXacts() now decides at the very beginning whether
particular record can be used or not.

* [PATCH 3/3] Distinguish properly when database-specific transaction list should be used.

Currently, decoding session that relies on database-specific xl_running_xacts
WAL records can also use some information of cluster-wide records and vice
versa. Although this approach might reduce the total number of
xl_running_xacts records, it's simply not correct.

SnapBuildProcessRunningXacts() now decides at the very beginning whether
particular record can be used or not.

Currently, decoding session that relies on database-specific xl_running_xacts
WAL records can also use some information of cluster-wide records and vice
versa. Although this approach might reduce the total number of
xl_running_xacts records, it's simply not correct.

SnapBuildProcessRunningXacts() now decides at the very beginning whether
particular record can be used or not.

Currently, decoding session that relies on database-specific xl_running_xacts
WAL records can also use some information of cluster-wide records and vice
versa. Although this approach might reduce the total number of
xl_running_xacts records, it's simply not correct.

SnapBuildProcessRunningXacts() now decides at the very beginning whether
particular record can be used or not.

* [PATCH 3/3] Distinguish properly when database-specific transaction list should be used.

Currently, decoding session that relies on database-specific xl_running_xacts
WAL records can also use some information of cluster-wide records and vice
versa. Although this approach might reduce the total number of
xl_running_xacts records, it's simply not correct.

SnapBuildProcessRunningXacts() now decides at the very beginning whether
particular record can be used or not.

Currently, decoding session that relies on database-specific xl_running_xacts
WAL records can also use some information of cluster-wide records and vice
versa. Although this approach might reduce the total number of
xl_running_xacts records, it's simply not correct.

SnapBuildProcessRunningXacts() now decides at the very beginning whether
particular record can be used or not.

* [PATCH 3/3] Distinguish properly when database-specific transaction list should be used.

Currently, decoding session that relies on database-specific xl_running_xacts
WAL records can also use some information of cluster-wide records and vice
versa. Although this approach might reduce the total number of
xl_running_xacts records, it's simply not correct.

SnapBuildProcessRunningXacts() now decides at the very beginning whether
particular record can be used or not.

* [PATCH] Distinguish properly when database-specific transaction list should be used.

Currently, decoding session that relies on database-specific xl_running_xacts
WAL records can also use some information of cluster-wide records and vice
versa. Although this approach might reduce the total number of
xl_running_xacts records, it's simply not correct.

SnapBuildProcessRunningXacts() now decides at the very beginning whether
particular record can be used or not.

Currently, decoding session that relies on database-specific xl_running_xacts
WAL records can also use some information of cluster-wide records and vice
versa. Although this approach might reduce the total number of
xl_running_xacts records, it's simply not correct.

SnapBuildProcessRunningXacts() now decides at the very beginning whether
particular record can be used or not.

* [PATCH] Distinguish properly when database-specific transaction list should be used.

Currently, decoding session that relies on database-specific xl_running_xacts
WAL records can also use some information of cluster-wide records and vice
versa. Although this approach might reduce the total number of
xl_running_xacts records, it's simply not correct.

SnapBuildProcessRunningXacts() now decides at the very beginning whether
particular record can be used or not.

Currently, decoding session that relies on database-specific xl_running_xacts
WAL records can also use some information of cluster-wide records and vice
versa. Although this approach might reduce the total number of
xl_running_xacts records, it's simply not correct.

SnapBuildProcessRunningXacts() now decides at the very beginning whether
particular record can be used or not.

Currently, decoding session that relies on database-specific xl_running_xacts
WAL records can also use some information of cluster-wide records and vice
versa. Although this approach might reduce the total number of
xl_running_xacts records, it's simply not correct.

SnapBuildProcessRunningXacts() now decides at the very beginning whether
particular record can be used or not.

* [PATCH 3/3] Distinguish properly when database-specific transaction list should be used.

Currently, decoding session that relies on database-specific xl_running_xacts
WAL records can also use some information of cluster-wide records and vice
versa. Although this approach might reduce the total number of
xl_running_xacts records, it's simply not correct.

SnapBuildProcessRunningXacts() now decides at the very beginning whether
particular record can be used or not.

Currently, decoding session that relies on database-specific xl_running_xacts
WAL records can also use some information of cluster-wide records and vice
versa. Although this approach might reduce the total number of
xl_running_xacts records, it's simply not correct.

SnapBuildProcessRunningXacts() now decides at the very beginning whether
particular record can be used or not.

Currently, decoding session that relies on database-specific xl_running_xacts
WAL records can also use some information of cluster-wide records and vice
versa. Although this approach might reduce the total number of
xl_running_xacts records, it's simply not correct.

SnapBuildProcessRunningXacts() now decides at the very beginning whether
particular record can be used or not.

Currently, decoding session that relies on database-specific xl_running_xacts
WAL records can also use some information of cluster-wide records and vice
versa. Although this approach might reduce the total number of
xl_running_xacts records, it's simply not correct.

SnapBuildProcessRunningXacts() now decides at the very beginning whether
particular record can be used or not.
