So we have three locations for that test; one is where it currently is, which handles a small subset of the cases. The other is where Amit first proposed putting it, which handles some additional cases; and the third one is where your latest patch puts it, which seems to handle all cases. Isn't that what Amit is saying? If that's correct (and that's what I want to imply with the comment changes I proposed), then we should just accept that version of the patch. I don't think that we care about what happens with constraint_exclusion is on. That's not the recommended value for that setting anyway. -- Álvaro Herrera https://www.2ndQuadrant.com/ PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Remote DBA, Training & Services
