What does this PR do?
Doubles ulpLimit to prevent
TestSummary/InsertN
from failing (see sample failure).Motivation
TestSummary/InsertN
is flaky in Go 1.20, but not on Go 1.19. This happens because of golang/go@90a67d0: we are not explicitly seeding themath/rand
RNG, which means the sequence of random numbers is fixed in Go 1.19 and below, but non-deterministic after it. See also golang/go/issues/54880.The test has probably been broken for a while, we just didn't notice because of the fixed inputs. We may want to revisit why the test is broken if we want to have a lower
ulpLimit
, but 256 still seems acceptable.
