Ouch, this means that for every insert we would have to trigger a procedure which will:
COUNT IF > Limit DELETE OLDEST
This would be pretty much damn ressource intensive on a table with million
of records, would not it ?
You can keep the count in a table on the side, and have it updated by the same trigger (after insert or delete)...
