Thanks both, this is sounding like a viable route now. Yes, this is viable. Patch attached, using Alvaro's idea of use-case specific pruning and Tom's idea of aiming at target relations. Patch uses or extends existing infrastructure, so its shorter than it might have been, yet with all that bufmgr yuck removed. This is very, very good because while going through this I notice the dozen or more places where we were pruning blocks in annoying places I didn't even know about such as about 4-5 constraint checks. In more than a few DDL commands like ALTER TABLE and CLUSTER we were even pruning the old relation prior to rewrite. -- Simon Riggs http://www.2ndQuadrant.com/ PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Training & Services
