Well the point is when you dump a user table, it will dump this setting along with it, same as it does now for statistics_target. So if you diff the DDL you might see differences in rounding. If you only diff the data, it won't matter unless, as you say, you're dumping pg_attribute itself. ...Robert -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
