I've been waiting for atleast one more person to sign up for the training
so OTG can confirm this class down there, they said that some of the
internal hackers had requested the course out there, so I wanted to ping
everyone here. I know, kinda off topic and all, but the event is coming up
soo
The platypus model he has has an external PSU. The external PSU can be
easily plugged into an UPS. Thus if the main system is shut down as long
as the UPS lives and/or there is power otherwise to the external PSU, the
card will keep the data.

A Block-sized read will not be rboken up. But if you're reading ina
size bigger than the underlying systems block sizes then it can get
broken up.
So yes a sequential read will get broken up. A single read request for
a block may or may not get broken up. If you're freading with set block

I contend this statement.
It's optimal to a point.

The benchmarks will depend mostly on the depth of the Btree. Hashes
will be markedly faster only in the case(s) where descending into the
tree to produce a matching leaf node would take longer than walking to
the appropriate item in a hash.
Most of the time until the btree gets deep they are

This will make it usable for much larger test files.

Finally someone writes down whats been itching at my brain for a while.
In a multi-tasking system it's always cheaper to fetch less blocks, no
matter where they are. Because, as you said, it will end up more or
less random onf a system experiencing a larger number of queries.

My opinion.
Expose some of the cost factors via run-time settings (or start-time
settings).
This would allow those who wanted to 'tweak' the planner to do so and
those that felt the defaults were fine or didn't know to leave them alone.
Comments?

Am I right, or did I miss
something? (wouldn't be the first time I missed something)... Right
now the planner seems to think that index queries are more expensive
with a larger width than doing a seqscan on (possibly) more rows with a
narrower width.

Reading all of this discussion lately about how the planner seems to
prefer seqscan's in alot of places where indexes would be better starts
making me wonder if some of the assumptions or cals made to figure costs
are wrong...
Anyone have any ideas?
