No primary key is required - this is only audit information. We do not
use it on Oracle too.
Based on a condition, 2,000,000 records should be deleted daily.
We have a background process that wakes up every X minutes and deletes Y

All,
I did this in my database:
CREATE CAST (VARCHAR AS BYTEA) WITHOUT FUNCTION;
But when I use pg_dump to dump the database and use pg_restore to bring
it back on a freshly created database, the CAST is the only part of the
