I think that it might be a good idea to create an "BTInsertionScankey" struct, or similar, since keysz, nextkey, the scankey array and now scantid are all part of that, and are all common to these 4 or so functions. It could have a flexible array at the end, so that we still only need a single palloc(). I'll look into that. > What do you think about submitting the patch to the next CF? Clearly the project that you're working on is a difficult one. It's easy for me to understand why you might want to take an iterative approach, with lots of prototyping. Your patch needs attention to advance, and IMV the CF is the best way to get that attention. So, I think that it would be fine to go submit it now. I must admit that I didn't even notice that your patch lacked a CF entry. Everyone has a different process, perhaps. -- Peter Geoghegan
