How about unrefuted. The evidence has not been refuted, and not directly discussed or discounted. BTREE can not be optimized to produce the results we've presented, the discussion about char(n) datatypes was irrelevant as we had shown results for INT, numeric and char/varchar and they were all dramatically better than BTREE. I am hopeful this discussion takes a rapid turn toward the quantitative assessment of the results. - Luke ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 9: In versions below 8.0, the planner will ignore your desire to choose an index scan if your joining column's datatypes do not match
