I would also add another sentence about *why* the recommendation was changed. We have one rule-based setup here, and it has been working flawlessly for us,... so personally I don't even know the reasons.


Rules are extremely slow in comparisons and not anywhere near as flexible. As I said up post yesterday... they work well in the basic partitioning configuration but anything else they are extremely deficient.

Ah, thanks for that summary. How do they compare to triggers dynamically EXECUTEing the inserts? Is that a better solution, or should one really just use the IF ... ELSIF ... ELSIF ... ELSE pattern as suggested in the new docs? (Which means one has to re-create the complete trigger each time a partition is added.)
