While looking over the statistics-for-functions patch (http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-patches/2008-03/msg00300.php), I came back to a thought I've had before - why do we keep one function per column for pgstat functions, instead of using a set returning function? Is there some actual reason for this, or is it just legacy from a time when it was (much) harder to write SRFs?
If there's no actual reason, I think it would be a good idea to make at least new views added based on SRFs instead.... //Magnus -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
