[Tarantool-patches] [tarantool-patches] Re: [PATCH] replication: freeze join vclock before read view

[Ilya Kosarev]

Ok, as far as wal_begin_checkpoint does pretty much the same thing as
wal_sync and allows us to obtain vclock in a more direct way, i see why
we should prefer it. Although it brings slight overhead comparing to
wal_sync, it doesn't really seem to be significant. Sent v2 of the patch.
