That only discourages pushing a particular column out; it will still do so if the row exceeds TOAST_TUPLE_THRESHOLD after compression. I kinda doubt the OP wants it to fail outright for rows over 8K, so altering TOAST_TUPLE_THRESHOLD seems like the right answer. Too bad we don't have that set up as a reloption... 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
