Obsolete comment in ExecInsert()
Hi,
While reviewing the “Fast COPY FROM based on batch insert" patch, I
noticed this comment introduced in commit b663a4136:
/*
* If a certain number of tuples have already been accumulated, or
* a tuple has come for a different relation than that for the
* accumulated tuples, perform the batch insert
*/
if (resultRelInfo->ri_NumSlots == resultRelInfo->ri_BatchSize)
{
ExecBatchInsert(mtstate, resultRelInfo,
resultRelInfo->ri_Slots,
resultRelInfo->ri_PlanSlots,
resultRelInfo->ri_NumSlots,
estate, canSetTag);
resultRelInfo->ri_NumSlots = 0;
}
I think the “or a tuple has come for a different relation than that
for the accumulated tuples" part in the comment is a leftover from an
earlier version of the patch [1]/messages/by-id/TYAPR01MB2990ECD1C68EA694DD0667E4FEE90@TYAPR01MB2990.jpnprd01.prod.outlook.com. As the code shows, we do not handle
that case anymore, so I think we should remove that part from the
comment. Attached is a patch for that.
Best regards,

+1, but what remains still seems awkwardly worded. How about something
like "When we've reached the desired batch size, perform the insertion"?

+1 for that change. Pushed that way.
Thanks for reviewing!
