I'm suggesting the planner keeps 2 plans: One with removable joins, one without the removable joins. You could, in theory, keep track of which tables had pending after triggers and skip pruning of just those but that would require you to grovel around in the after trigger queue, as well as keep a rather large number of plans. I don't think this deserves that complexity, since ISTM very likely we'll almost never need the full plans, so we just make one short test to see if there is anything in the trigger queue at all and if so skip the pruning of any joins. The Executor already has a Result node which allows it to decide what subnodes to execute at run time, so this is similar. -- Simon Riggs http://www.2ndQuadrant.com/ PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Training & Services -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
