Hi All,

Just a small comment from a mortal user.

It's correct that the hardware statistics are quite immutable - per 
tablespace. This suggests to me that the GUC should be default value only and 
then overridable per tablespace. It's quite normal to have primary (current 
data) and secondary (historical data) storage for larger databases.
This can also fit nicely into the pg_tmp storage if tie support for multiple 
tmp folders together with tablespaces.

This would also be very cool - currently the planner can really get annoyed 
when joining SRF functions with tables.
