I think this patch is utterly pointless. I recommend we reject it. If this were part of some larger refactoring that was going in some direction we could agree on, it might be worth it. But as it is, I think it's just a shot in the dark whether this change will end up being better or worse, and my personal bet is that it won't make any difference whatsoever. -- Robert Haas EnterpriseDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise PostgreSQL Company -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
