Hmm... Personaly for me the original topic name is good enough. But what I discover for myself is that we have pg_attrdef separately from the pg_attribute. Why? Is it time to join them? For not presented defaults it would be only one bit per row(if we avoid "adsrc" as it is recommended), but for a separate table it is 11 columns with two indexes now... -- Best regards, Vitaly Burovoy -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
