I was pinged because this is listed as an open item. I don't think it is one. Handling ATTACH/DETACH/DROP is important for overall consistency, of course, so we should do it eventually, but the fact that autovacuum runs analyze *at all* for partitioned tables is an enormous step forward from it not doing so. I think we should treat ATTACH/ DETACH/DROP handling as a further feature to be added in a future release, not an open item to be fixed in the current one. Now, if somebody sees a very trivial way to handle it, let's discuss it, but *I* don't see it. -- Álvaro Herrera Valdivia, Chile "You're _really_ hosed if the person doing the hiring doesn't understand relational systems: you end up with a whole raft of programmers, none of whom has had a Date with the clue stick."
