I think it's good for new storage managers to have full control over interactions with indexes. I'm not sure about the MVCC part. I think it would be legitimate to want a storage manager to ignore MVCC altogether - e.g. to build a non-transactional table. I don't know that it would be a very good idea to have two different full-fledged MVCC implementations, though. Like Tom says, that would be replicating a lot of the awfulness of the MySQL model. -- 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
