I think this would be cool on its own merits. However, for a very large user group -- users with ORMs which do their own DDL migrations -- we could also use a way to log or WARN for table rewrites. Since the ORMs are not gonna do an EXPLAIN. -- Josh Berkus PostgreSQL Experts Inc. http://pgexperts.com -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
