I doubt it. It's such a pain point already that massively increasing the amount of data we need to store does not seem like a good plan. > I guess it > primarily depends on how much of the new code that would need to be > rewritten, if the collector is optimized/rewritten in the future? I don't think that's really the issue. It's more that I think it would be the extra data would be likely to cause real pain for users. FWIW, I tend to think that the solution here has less to do with splitting the data up into more files and more to do with rethinking the format. -- Robert Haas EnterpriseDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise PostgreSQL Company -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
