I think the ideal way to get pipelined execution will be to detect the cases where it's safe, ie, no deletes, inserts, or updates, no recursive calls, and only one call site, and inline the sql directly into the callsite. Actually we could do that even if there are two callsites if there are no volatile functions but estimating whether that would be a win or a loss would be hard. -- greg -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
