TBH, it sounds like it would almost always be a waste of planning cycles.
I doubt that typical applications would issue many queries in which such
an optimization would apply.

[HACKERS] Optimization- Check the set of conditionals on a WHERE clause against CHECK constraints.

2016-02-06 Thread Shubham Barai
Hello hackers,

I was searching for project ideas and found this

1.Optimization- Check the set of conditionals on a WHERE clause against
CHECK constraints  on the table being queried and remove any conditionals
which *must* be true due to the CHECK constraints.

Is it expensive for  simple queries?

will it optimize  general queries ?

Any thoughts will be helpful.
Thanks.
