We were told equally positively, by equally well-informed persons, that we should prefer -fpic if at all possible. The best I have been able to tell is that none of our .so's are anywhere near large enough to require -fPIC. In the absence of any evidence that we really are near the threshold, I'd prefer to go for the better-performing alternative. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 9: the planner will ignore your desire to choose an index scan if your joining column's datatypes do not match
