In fact, I've has this exact discussion previously.
How odd, because that's clearly NOT what I said. In fact I used the single "a" to describe the project I was looking at where having a default table fill factor of < 100 would be very useful. OTOH, I have stats databases that have only insert and drop child tables that would not benefit from < 100 fill factor. For a heavily updated database, where most of the updates will NOT be on indexed columns, as the ONE project I'm looking at, a default fill factor would be quite a time saver. -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
