nope! oid is 1. deprecated 2. not guaranteed to be unique even inside a (large) table. Use a sequence instead. create view a_b as select nextval('some_sequnce')::k, a.*, b.* from a, b [...] select * from a_b where k > k1 order by k limit 1000 *or* execute fetch_a_b(k1, 1000) <-- pass limit into prepared statement for extra flexibility. ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 7: don't forget to increase your free space map settings
