The same is true on the input side. I'd much rather be sending an ORM client a big JSON / YAML / whatever graph than a horrible, duplication-filled chained LEFT JOIN projection like they currently rely on. When they're not just doing n+1 selects, which is worse. I think that's really a side-issue though. ORMs aren't going to change in a hurry, and batching / fire-and-forget support is good for all sorts of other jobs too. -- Craig Ringer 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
