We use the term "HOT" for two features: 1. HOT updates: Avoiding index updates when keys are not modified. 2. HOT pruning: Removing tuple bodies, that works even for indexed tuples. 2 is the point of the case, but ambiguous "HOT" might confuse some people. -- Itagaki Takahiro -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
