TEMP tables are not local to any particular schema, so it wouldn't make sense to have a schema-level default for their placement. The other five combinations are at least theoretically sensible, but do we need 'em all? It seems to me that a reasonable compromise is to offer database-level default tablespaces for TEMP, TABLE, and INDEX, ignoring the schema level. This is simple and understandable, and if you don't like it, you're probably the kind of guy who will want to override it per-table anyway ... BTW, another dimension to think about is where TOAST tables and their indexes will get placed. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 1: subscribe and unsubscribe commands go to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
