Indeed, I'm wondering why one needs to hack the Postgres core to throw away data integrity guarantees; there are plenty of ways to do that already :-(. Hideyuki-san has not explained exactly what integrity assumptions he wants to make or not make. I'm surely willing to listen to supporting a different set of assumptions than we currently use, but I'd like to see a clear explanation of what assumptions are being made and why they represent a useful case. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 7: You can help support the PostgreSQL project by donating at http://www.postgresql.org/about/donate
