The compress function is only useful for storing different values on leaves than on the column you're indexing, AFAIUI.

I'm unsure how correct an answer this is, though... -- dim -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
