If I write a function that does a 'tolower()' on each
character of a parameter passed into my function, do I
have to allocate a new text object and initialize it
and copy the data, or can I modify that object in
place and return it?
Modifying it in place will save the overhead of an
alloc call, a

Is there a formal way of submiting something to the
contrib section of the distribution?

I am reposting this because I'm not sure it actually
made it to the list.
I have a function to transform text into a
pseudo-metaphone variable, take this example:
cddbsql=# select song, metatext(song) from cdsongs
where metatext(song) like metatext('born to run')
limit 3 ;
song | metate
In 7.1 the row limit is not as big a deal because of
tuple toaster. I had a 7.0 database that needed the
row limit change, in 7.1 it does not seem too.
But if you want to chang it anyway, in config.h, look
for this line:
#define BLCKSZ 8192
It can be made as large as 32768.
