Uh, are you sure the results aren't swapped? string_wrapper takes a parameter called use_strcoll, and it indeed uses strcoll() if that parameter is true, and strxfm() otherwise. But then it passes *false* to determine the speed of strcoll(), and *true* to determine the speed of strxfm()... Also, place_random_string() needs to insert a terminating zero byte, otherwise set_test segfaults, at least on my OSX machine. best regards, Florian Pflug -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
