That's been overtaken by events, unfortunately: we now need those entries to carry per-column permissions on system columns. So they're no longer merely overhead. Possibly we could hack things so that only system columns with non-default permissions are actually stored, but that feels like a kluge. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
