There isn't any of that stuff that's *in* TopMemoryContext. Whether the hash table contexts are children of TopMemoryContext or CacheMemoryContext would be important if we were ever going to reset either, but we aren't. The main point in my mind is that it be possible to tell from a memory stats dump how much is being used for what, and we do have that. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
