Why would this be intentional? One concern I have about this approach is that I am guessing that the current implementation of str_tolower() is a lot slower than the current implementation of downcase_truncate_identifier(). It would be nice to have an implementation that is capable of handling wide characters but doesn't actually incur the speed penalty unless a wide character is actually present. -- Robert Haas EnterpriseDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise PostgreSQL Company -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
