There won't be one for a constant, nor even for a variable in any sane situation --- who's going to be using multi-kilobyte delimiter values? And if they do, aren't they likely to run out of memory for the result long before the repeated detoasts become an interesting problem? You're arguing about a case that seems quite irrelevant to the real world. 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
