- As a rule of thumb, <structfield>queryid</structfield> values can be assumed to be
- stable and comparable only so long as the underlying server version and
- catalog metadata details stay exactly the same. Two servers
- participating in replication based on physical WAL replay can be expected
- to have identical <structfield>queryid</structfield> values for the same query.
- However, logical replication schemes do not promise to keep replicas
- identical in all relevant details, so <structfield>queryid</structfield> will
- not be a useful identifier for accumulating costs across a set of logical
- replicas. If in doubt, direct testing is recommended.

+ providing that instances are running on the same machine architecture and
+ the catalog metadata details match. Compatibility will only be broken
+ between minor versions as a last resort.
