Reading fast truncated pages in a readonly database can lead to cache stuck

XMLWordPrintableJSON

      The table having fast truncated pages from a previous session and reading them in a read-only database environment can lead to cache stuck as the instantiated deleted pages cannot evict until the truncate operation is globally visible.

      1. Create a table and insert 10000 keys
      2. Close and open the database.
      3. Perform truncate operation, this will do a fast truncate.
      4. Reopen the database in a read-only environment.
      5. Read the key values before the truncate command. This operation fails as the cache gets full with all the instantiated deleted pages.
