If I send the CancelRequest when postgres is in point 3, I'm too
late, but if postgres is in 1 or 2, the CancelRequest will have some
effect.
I'm still wrong here ?
thanks for clarification the concept!
Yes, it will have some effect in cases 1 and 2. You will know it
worked because you'll get error 57014 - canceling statement due to
user request.
An easy way to test this out is to call pg_sleep with a big number and
then cancel the query on another connection. You won't have to worry
about the timing of receiving all rows or not.
