Do you have any idea how skewed the distribution of data for DBT3 is? If values are being generated in relatively equal proportion, I'd expect increasing DST to have little effect. The databases where higher DST is useful is ones with skewed data distribution. Unfortunately, all the data examples I could point to are proprietary customer databases :-( -- --Josh Josh Berkus PostgreSQL San Francisco -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
