I suppose this could be a separately discussed feature. We'd also want to consider various things that PL/pgSQL pretends to be compatible with. One of the main motivations for procedures is to do more complex and expensive things including transaction control. So saving exception overhead is not really on the priority list there. -- Peter Eisentraut http://www.2ndQuadrant.com/ PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Remote DBA, 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
