Uh-huh. And what do you do with relpages, reltuples, relfrozenxid, and
pg_statistic entries? What if one backend wants to TRUNCATE or CLUSTER
its copy (requiring a new relfilenode)? Where does ALTER TABLE fit into
this?
This entries can be teoreticly virtual (in memory). If we have some
memory storage we can use it for it.
nice a day
