Without having optimized it very much yet, the performance for a 1GB ORDER BY is * without COLLATE clause: about the same as without the patch * with COLLATE clause: about 30%-50% slower I can imagine that there is some optimization potential in the latter case. But in any case, it's not awfully slow. -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
