This is likely to cause a certain amount of annoyance to many PostgreSQL developers, but if you have evidence that it will improve performance significantly, I think it's very reasonable to do it anyway. However, if we do it all in a backward-compatible way as you propose, then we're likely to keep reintroducing code that does it the old way for a really long time. I'm not sure that actually makes a lot of sense. It might be better to just bite the bullet and make a hard break. -- Robert Haas EnterpriseDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise PostgreSQL Company
