Of course. While creating a cache entry for a SELECT, we need to analyze it and extract tables involved in the SELECT. The information should be stored along with the cache entry. If any of the tables were modified, cache entries using the table must be removed. (these are already implemented in Pgpool-II's in memory query cache) Best regards, -- Tatsuo Ishii SRA OSS, Inc.
