Snapshot caching, introduced in 623a9ba7, did not increment xactCompletionCount during subtransaction abort. That could lead to an older snapshot being reused. That is, at least as far as I can see, not a correctness issue (for MVCC snapshots there's no difference between "in progress" and "aborted"). The only difference between the old and new snapshots would be a newer ->xmax. While HeapTupleSatisfiesMVCC makes the same visibility determination, reusing the old snapshot leads HeapTupleSatisfiesMVCC to not set HEAP_XMIN_INVALID. Which subsequently causes the kill_prior_tuple optimization to not kick in (via HeapTupleIsSurelyDead() returning false). The performance effects of doing the same index-lookups over and over again is how the issue was discovered... Fix the issue by incrementing xactCompletionCount in XidCacheRemoveRunningXids. It already acquires ProcArrayLock exclusively, making that an easy proposition. Add a test to ensure that kill_prior_tuple prevents index growth when it involves aborted subtransaction of the current transaction.
