By the way your comment for indexrinfos is as following,

But the v4 patch instead leaves it empty for non-partial
indexes:) I prefer to follow this comment because looking the
condition (index->indpred != NIL) for such purpose in
build_index_paths is somewhat uneasy for me. But I don't insist
on that if you choose to avoid useless memory and clock
consumption to construct a list which is not so meaningful for
non-partial indexes (it is almost all cases).

Good point. I think we may simply point indexrinfos to the existing list of restrictions in that case - we don't need to copy it. So no additional memory / CPU consumption, and it should make the code working with it a bit simpler.


The following comment in match_clause_to_index does not need to be a
'XXX' comment. What made you to feel to do so? (I rather feel that it
is not necessary at all.)

I agree that it may not be really necessary. I added the comment because initially I've made the check inside the for loop and then spent some time investigating why it's not working as expected.


* XXX We must do this before trying to match the index to index
*     columns, because the index predicates may use columns not
*     used in the index itself.

Anyway some description on rclauses should be added in the
comment for match_clause_to_index, instead of the comments
currently added *within* the function.

OK, will do.


kind regards
