I wouldn't mind if we took "Locator" out of the name of that function and just called it DropRelFileBuffers or DropRelationBuffers or something. That would be shorter, and maybe more intuitive. I wasn't quite able to understand whether your original question was prompted by having missed the commit in question, or whether you disagreed with it, so that's why I asked whether you had seen the commit message. -- Robert Haas EDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com
