Hmm, that would be a different way of attacking the problem. Not sure offhand which is better, but it'd surely be worth considering both. Note that collecting of dead-tuple counts requires input from aborted transactions as well as successful ones. I don't recall whether the stats collector currently collects anything from aborted xacts; that might or might not be a sticky point. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 3: if posting/reading through Usenet, please send an appropriate subscribe-nomail command to [EMAIL PROTECTED] so that your message can get through to the mailing list cleanly
