Some of areas of R&D are definitely on the roadmap, others are more
flexible. Some of this is in progress, other stuff is not even at the
design stage - yet, just a few paragraphs along the lines of "we will
look at these topics". If we have room, its possible we may
accommodate other topics; this is not carte blanche, but the reason
for posting here is so people know we will take input, following the
normal community process. Detailed in-person discussions at PGCon are
expected and the Wiki pages will be updated for each aspect.

Query tuning
* Approximate queries, sampling
* Materialized Views
Great! I'm looking forward to seeing PostgreSQL evolve as an analytics
database for data warehousing. Is there any reason why in-memory database
and MPP is not included?
Are you planning to include the above features in 9.5 and 9.6? Are you
recommending other developers not implement these features to avoid
duplication of work with AXLE?
