Can you explain which bug in PG10 you are talking about? Did you perhaps mean PG11? I'm not onboard with overloading the constraint_exclusion GUC any further to mean something it shouldn't. The PG11 partition pruning code does not use CHECK constraints to eliminate partitions, so I see no reason why constraint_exclusion should turn it on or off. -- David Rowley http://www.2ndQuadrant.com/ PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Training & Services
