I'm curious if partitioning can help help provide online create/reindex. For example, if I could set set up a table partitioned by "modified time"; could I make a new partition so all new inserts go into a new partition and then I can re-index / create-index on the old partitions concurrently because only reads and deletes would be happening on that old table? The new partition would have a new index anyway so no reindex would even be needed on that part. ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 1: if posting/reading through Usenet, please send an appropriate subscribe-nomail command to [EMAIL PROTECTED] so that your message can get through to the mailing list cleanly
