I’d like to see a true monotonic counter in Postgres. Serials can increment out of order when multiple transactions are active. We can obtain the WAL LSN, but it’s not related to the currently active transaction. I really like FoundationDB’s versionstamp, would be great to have that in Postgres.





Thanks for the reply,will surely look into it.
