I'll probably add a comment or two about how the loops interact. Thanks. FWIW, I did some more performance testing, with input consisting of a lot of quotes, and it seems the performance gain holds even then. I was not able to find an input where the new version performs worse. -- Heikki Linnakangas EnterpriseDB http://www.enterprisedb.com -- Sent via pgsql-patches mailing list (pgsql-patches@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-patches
