Yeah, this is the kind of idea which can work. One thing you might want to check is the overhead of the additional deform/form cycle. You might want to use Peter's tests above. I think you need to only form old/new tuples when you have changed something in it but on a quick look, it seems you are always re-forming both the tuples. -- With Regards, Amit Kapila.
