Eh, "tapes".
Aha..
Given the partitioning case, I'd expect all rows to have an equal
tuple descriptor. Maybe this is a matter of what to optimize, then?
Could you elaborate on what use case you have in mind?
You need a priority queue to figure out from which tape (partition)
you need to remove the next tuple.
And why do you need lots of heap memory to do that? Anything wrong with
the zipper approach I've outlined upthread?
Am I missing something?
