Seems better > I added a bunch of hopefully informative comments in partprune.c and for > the struct definitions of pruning step nodes. Yes. That looks better. > Please find attached find a new version. Thanks. I've made a pass over this and I only have the attached set of fixes and the following to show for it. 1. Please add more comments in the switch statement in get_partitions_for_keys_range 2. More an observation than anything else. I see we've lost the ability to prune range queries on LIST partitions in some cases. For example: CREATE TABLE listp (a INT) PARTITION BY LIST(a); CREATE TABLE listp1_3 PARTITION OF listp FOR VALUES IN(1,3); EXPLAIN SELECT * FROM listp WHERE a > 1 AND a < 3; This is just down to the new pruning step design. WHERE we first prune on "a > 1", which matches listp1_3 due to 3, then binary-AND to the results of the "a < 3", which matches listp1_3 due to 1. This is a shame, but probably not the end of the world. Fixing it would likely mean moving back towards the previous design. -- David Rowley http://www.2ndQuadrant.com/ PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Training & Services
