Honestly, I really never thought of the issue of whether this would push some structure over a power-of-two size. It's not like either Path or IndexPath have comments saying "for the love of heaven, don't make this bigger". This is in contrast to, say, PGXACT, where there is a such a comment, because I knew it was an issue and I added a comment explaining that issue. Now maybe I should have foreseen the objection anyway, but, you know, it's hard to foresee everything somebody might object to. -- 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
