Well, I think the user doesn't *care* to see a message about the optimization. They just want the command to be fast. *We* (developers) want the message in order to ensure the command remains fast. So some DEBUG level seems the right thing. Another way to reach the same conclusion is to think about the "building index ... serially" messages, which are are pretty much in the same category and are using DEBUG1. (I do think the TOAST ones are just noise though, and since they disrupt potential testing with client_min_messages=debug1, another way to go about this is to reduce those to DEBUG2 or just elide them.) -- Álvaro Herrera https://www.2ndQuadrant.com/ PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Remote DBA, Training & Services
