teardown (theoretically at least). But in any case, maybe you could use a test listener (https://phpunit.de/manual/6.5/en/extending-phpunit.html#extending-phpunit.PHPUnit_Framework_TestListener) and implement endTestSuite() ? It's not exactly identical since there are generally multiple suites being executed at once, but I think it might meet your needs.

This isn't just PostgreSQL, it applies to MySQL too.

... specific to PostgreSQL, but after failing to reproduce the premise, Aaron pointed out "pg" in the wiki name.

Doing a quick var_dump on $encLike = $this->escapeLikeInternal( $table, '\\' ); reveals that before the PR it would return "unittest\_archive" and now after the change it contains "unittest\_unittest\_archive".

mwjames added a comment to T154424: TransactionProfiler should not apply to SqlBagOStuff.

I think the method of injecting TransactionProfilers needs refactoring to make this more flexible, and given that this warning is mainly intended for developers I don't think it should be a release blocker (since it's not trivial to fix).

mwjames added a comment to T167941: TransactionProfiler throws a "Expectation ..." on SqlBagOStuff::setMulti.

Normally, I would use redis but this time around for testing I just used the vanilla setup that comes with SqlBagOStuff out of the box hence the increased log output.

Also nothing is thrown here, there is no PHP "exception". Rather it's a debug log message (severity=INFO) that is hidden by default and (for easier debugging) includes a manually created stack trace.

@Krinkle As for the last stack trace, it happens on each edit and causes a significant lag during a save action.
