FWIW, I'd be seriously resistant to simply replacing Bitmapset with something like that, as I think the present implementation is about right for the planner's uses and complicating it would just slow things down. There may be specific places where a compressed implementation could win, though. Anyway, that's off-topic for the present thread. I believe it's middle-of-the-night in Rowley's time zone, so I was waiting for further comment from him before taking any action. regards, tom lane
