Yes, that's what I am coming at, but that would be really dictionnary specific and that would be roughly to provide a fast-path equivalent to the tsearch_readline* routines working on files. The addition of new infrastructure may perhaps not be worth the performance gains. Definitely for this fix there is no need to do anything more complicated than tweaking the script to generate the rules. -- Michael -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
