27183 | on: Postgres 19 is late because so many more bugs are being found now
Yes, exactly. The only question I have is whether the delay is attributable to high-quality bug reports or the burden of triaging low-quality ones. It's not completely clear which situation they're experiencing.

It’s pretty clear there are a lot of valid reports based on the large increase in backport commits cited.

The post sort of gave a read that the lower elements may be a culprit rather than triaging higher qualitu.

I'd imagine just as every other project, both.

Certainly both. About half of AI bug reports I get are invalid. Many others are questionable. It's a huge time sink figuring it out.

That's kind of what I was afraid of. Both is really bad news. If you think of it in terms of average speed over ground, working on low quality reports is like spending a bunch of time at v=0.
