They are very efficient with regard to index inserts and specially designed for use on large tables. Prior work by Heikki on Grouped Item Tuples was a way of reducing the size of indexes, yet still allowing uniqueness checks. That is implemented in SQLServer already and is very useful. Your comment about the lack of development in indexes seems counter to the literature that I've seen. The main problem is people keep patenting things, making it fairly difficult for everyone. -- Simon Riggs http://www.2ndQuadrant.com/ PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Training & Services -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
