Well that's possible but I think it's worth experimenting. I'm pretty confident there would be ways to clean the graphs up so they're sensible and even if not they would still be a lot more helpful than nothing user-visible. Would it be reasonable to just make the function extern with a comment that it's an internal function subject to change in the future. That would at least let us experiment with an add-on function for 8.3 so we know what we really need for 8.4. Tools like this would be very version-dependent anyways. -- Gregory Stark EnterpriseDB http://www.enterprisedb.com ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 6: explain analyze is your friend
