Actually, CONCURRENTLY was cited as the #1 deficiency for the matview feature for 9.3. With it, the use-case for Postgres matviews is broadened considerably. So it's very valuable on its own, even if (for example) INCREMENTAL didn't get done for 9.3. -- Josh Berkus PostgreSQL Experts Inc. http://pgexperts.com -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
