Well, there wouldn't be any way for the planner to know whether an index-only scan would be safe or not. I think this would have to look like a run-time fallback. Could it be structured as "return that the page's all-visible bit is not set, instead of failing?" Or am I confused about where the conflict is coming from? regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
