Of course as strictly optional feature useful only for special situations (see below) I cross-post this to [HACKERS] as it seem relevant to a problem recently discussed there. It would be very hairy to implement it correctly, and all this would cover is the single case of SELECT COUNT(*) FROM SOME_TABLE; Not really. Just yesterday there was a discussion on [HACKERS] about implementing btree-organized tables, which would be much less needed if the visibility info were kept in indexes. If you had a single WHERE clause attached, you would have to revert to walking through the tuples looking for the ones that are live and committed, which is true for any DBMS. If the WHERE clause could use the same index (or any index with visibility info) then there would be no need for walking through the tuples in data relation. the typical usecase cited on [HACKERS] was time series data, where inserts are roughly in (timestamp,id)order but queries in (id,timestamp) order. Now if the index would include all relevant fields (id,timestamp,data1,data2,...,dataN) then the query could run on index only touching just a few pages and thus vastly improving performance. I agree that this is not something everybody needs, but when it is needed it is needed bad. And it still begs the same question, of why the result of this query would be particularly meaningful to anyone. I don't see the usefulness; I don't see the value of going to the considerable effort of fixing this purported problem. Being able to do fast count(*) is just a side benefit.

What I actually thought I was describing is how CLUSTER should work in a postgres flavour of MVCC storage ;). Not the CLUSTER command, but the whole feature. Yeah, I can see this. Clustering doesn't really imply ordering, just tuple proximity in the heap. Loosely implemented by default (i.e. only grouping a tuple if it is cheap to do so at insert/update time) on a table's primary key might give measurable query performance improvement in the typical case without impacting the average performance of queries that use other indexes. Even if the tuples were not ordered in the heap, tuple proximity in the heap would solve a significant percentage of the performance issue that index-organized tables solve i.e. greatly improved cache efficiency. AFAICS we could resolve this problem (querying indexes only) by keeping a copy of visibility info (tmin,tmax,...) in index tuples. This would make index updates bigger and thus slower, so this should be optional. It wouldn't be a feature you would want to use anyway if actually indexing a table. But yes, adding the necessary support to make an index page masquerade as a proper heap page would be most of the effort. That and making the SQL execution efficiently make use of the fact that the index and the table are the same relation with two different interfaces, such that you don't have to modify or access both when using either one. If you then put all fields in primary key, then the main table could be dropped. If there is no data table then no other indexes would then be allowed, or they must be double-indexes referencing the primary key, not tuple and thus even bigger ... Putting an index on an index is pretty horrible. But quite frankly, if you actually require a second index on a table, then B-Tree organized tables are not what you need. But if we had clustered the table on (id, timestamp), then the data would be in right order for queries, if cluster worked well. Right, and it doesn't even have to be in perfect index order really, as what I'm really trying to do is significantly decrease the amount of buffers required for a typical query. Having to order the tuples later is a small matter. Yeah, index-organized tables seems exact fit for your problem, but then my abstract idea of what clustering should do is exactly that - keep tuples in roughly the same order as an index ;) It would be a good approximation of what index-organizing aims to accomplish. So what really is needed is a smart tuple-placer which can keep tuples that are close (as defined by index) together in a small number of pages. These pages themselves need not be coninuous, they can be sprinkled around in the whole data table, but they need to stay clusters of index-close tuples. More or less, yes.

My take is that clustering means not only placing related tuples near each other, but taking steps to preserve that organization over time. PG is really misusing the term because our current CLUSTER command does the first but not the second. If tuple insertions were to try to preserve the heap ordering induced by the latest CLUSTER command, then I think we'd have something closer to what is usually meant by the term.

It doesn't help when there a lot of access locality in searching. In my case I want to select some thousands of records that were inserted very apart from each other, but are logically very near. Having this pseudoheap that is ordered by definition helps very much with the selection; the current heap requires me to bring to buffers lots of uninteresting tuples, whichever buffer management algorithm is used, because they are in the same page as interesting tuples. Yes, what Alvaro said. For very large tables that routinely run modest range queries, it can be very expensive in terms of cache efficiency if tuples that are closely grouped and ordered logically are scattered throughout the heap. The requirement to buffer a lot of unrelated data for typical case queries can greatly reduce the cache hit rate if the active portion of the data is already quite large relative to the physical RAM available. To give a real world example, a standard query on one of our tables that has not been CLUSTER-ed recently (i.e. within the last several days) generates an average of ~2,000 cache misses. Recently CLUSTER-ed, it generates ~0 cache misses on average. Needless to say, one is *much* faster than the other. The problem is that the number of buffers required to satisfy this query with the tuples scattered is enough to make it swap out the buffers of another competing query on another table that is also running. The result is that performance grinds to a halt as processes are competing with each other and trying to swap out each others buffers, resulting in a lot less *actual* buffering than should be occurring given the amount of data actually being queried. In my case, not only does CLUSTER-ing increase the number of concurrent queries possible without disk thrashing by an integer factor, but the number of buffers touched on a query that generates a cache misses is greatly reduced as well. The problem is that CLUSTER-ing is costly and index-organizing some of the tables would reduce the buffer needs, since the index tuple in these cases are almost as large as the heap tuples they reference. The classic scenario for this is when you have a large collection of time-series data stored in a table, with each series keyed to another table. The the typical tuple distribution creates pathological behaviors when buffer space becomes tight.

What you are describing is more akin to partitioning or hash-organized tables i.e. sorting insert/update tuples to various pages according to some hash function. This works well if you a table is composed of many well-defined working sets but the access and query patterns for a given working set are varied. A common example of this is for large accounting tables, which are frequently partitioned by a function which truncates the record timestamp to the year/month. Note that indexes can be partitioned as well, so that as long as you are doing queries within a given month (using the accounting example), the query performance is generally what you would expect if the entire table was the size of one month's data, no matter how big the table actually gets. Partitions and hash-organized tables (for RDBMS that support them) are often handled internally as multiple tables masquerading as one (kind of like a view), with the hash function determining which table is actually being accessed. This allows the possibility of doing things like locking individual partitions or setting them read-only, and generally having the option of treating them as individual tables for administrative purposes e.g. deleting a partition of old unused data without adversely affecting the active partition in the way it would if they were truly one table, even if they look like one table from a SQL-level view.

In the current btree implementation this is worked around using the pointers-to-heap (ctid?) to differentiate items that have the same key. If you use a clustered index you won't have this pointer; maybe it will be required that this index is marked UNIQUE.
