Oh, I see, but how about my second question, is it possible?
If it happens:
1. the second rel's pages' lsn surely is lager than xlog records of the
first rel;
2. so it's possible some xlog record are not redoed;
3. but those pages that can be rewrite fully are rewrited unconditionaly,

If I do a PITR recovery now, is there any trouble?----The file contains both
old rels'data and new rel's.


Am I wrong?
