I've a postgres statement that reads:
CREATE TABLE "channel" (
"chanid" int NOT NULL default '0',
"channum" varchar(10) NOT NULL default '',
"freqid" varchar(10) default NULL,
"sourceid" int default NULL,
.
.
.
PRIMARY KEY ("chanid"),
KEY "channel_s
> );
I'm doing this table by table, line by line. Each table, I learn
something new about the differences between MySQL and Postgres, I
mentally catalog it and I can always look it up in my own code next time
for examples.
I've a tool that is providing some help but sometimes it chok
t for a week now. I've got to say that it pains me
to know that there is apparently no open standard in use for
importing/exporting data from one db to another. XML would do the job,
wouldn't it?
If I'm wrong, I sure would like to hear about it.

Actually, I believe part of the discussion also involved how to handle

people think about the Oracle method where bulk data operations
can only occur in a specified directory? Making that restriction might
address some of the security concerns. I don't think we should change

That's not totally true. A single query can use work_mem for multiple
steps, so if work_mem is 10MB a single query could end up using 20MB,
30MB, or even mor

cally, anything trying to
access the old table will block for a while waiting for the update to
happen.
But keep in mind that 'a while' will depend on what's happening on the
system. Imagine...
Start long transaction involving table
Run code above; drop aquires lock on table
I *think* that
DROP will. So it will be slightly faster.
In either case, if a user is running a long transaction on the old table
when you try and rename/drop it, that is going to completely swamp the
effects of everything else. So, if you have some long-running queries
that use that table, there is going

in/pgtodo?pg_dump), I find myself
wondering if it would be good to allow for specifying a set of rules for
what to dump in a file, probably something like a set of regexes with a
way to specify if it's an include or exclude rule. Seems like it would
be a heck of a lot simpler to do that for c

Aren't there a good number of performance issues if you mis-mark a
function?
In any case, ISTM it'd be much better to perform poorly rather than give
bad/wrong results. I do
HO, anyone messing around with object
