Implementing NULLS FIRST and NULLS LAST appears like another challenging step to getting window functions wrapped up. Has your research lead you to any ideas on what your strategy for NULLS FIRST and NULLS LAST likely would be? ---(end of broadcast)--- TIP 7: You can help support the PostgreSQL project by donating at http://www.postgresql.org/about/donate

[HACKERS] DTrace?
I skimmed the thread "Spinlocks, yet again: analysis and proposed patches". Wouldn't Solaris 10's DTrace be helpful in seeing what's going on? It seems DTrace was meant for these types of problems. __ Yahoo!

[HACKERS] PostgreSQL roadmap for 8.2 and beyond.
Autovacuum is getting put into the 8.1 release which is awesome. A lot of us are wondering now that PostgreSQL has all the features that many of us need, what are the features being planned for future releases? What do you see for 8.2 and beyond? What type of features are you devs planning for 9.0? It would be good if you could put up a place on your site so we mortals can drool over up-coming postgresql features. __ Start your day with Yahoo! - Make it your home page! http://www.yahoo.com/r/hs ---(end of broadcast)--- TIP 2: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster
