Maybe this is the wrong perspective. I mean, is there a reason we even need this option, other than a lack of any other way to do a full table scan to check for corruption, etc.? If we're only doing this for integrity checking, then maybe it's better if it becomes a function, which could be later extended with additional forensic features? -- -- Josh Berkus Red Hat OSAS (any opinions are my own) -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
