ISTM we've just invented the concept of one-time plans to allow CREATE INDEX to work effectively with HOT.
I'd like to extend that thought back over towards constraint exclusion. Currently we don't allow STABLE functions to be used for constraint exclusion because that mean plans were valid only if they are immediately executed. It seems like a very small act to force the plan to be one-time only when we have successfully used a STABLE function to exclude a table. -- Simon Riggs EnterpriseDB http://www.enterprisedb.com ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 7: You can help support the PostgreSQL project by donating at http://www.postgresql.org/about/donate
