It makes sense grammatically, but I'm not sure I believe that it's sound technically. Even though it's only used in the non-HOT case, it's still important that the CTID, XMIN, and XMAX fields are set correctly during both normal operation and recovery. -- Robert Haas EnterpriseDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise PostgreSQL Company
