Uh, no, I'm pretty sure there's a translation to the client encoding.
It's in a subroutine

We need to decide on how to handle encoding information embedded in xml
data that is passed through the client/server encoding conversion.
Here is an example:
Client encoding is A, server encoding is B. Client sends an xml datum
that looks like this:

For that same reason DROP DATABASE could just cut all connections to the
database. Or at least queue up and wait until the session is over.

First, thanks for working on this. I hope to be helpful with the design
discussion and possibly some coding if I can find the time.
My initial reaction to this proposal is that it seems overly complex,
however I don't see a more elegant solution. I'm a bit concerned that
most users won't fig

I don't think I trust your reverse-listing of IS DOCUMENT; you need
parens around the argument to be sure it is parsed the same way next
time, if it's not a trivial expression

I've been thinnking how to improve autovacuum so that we can convince
more people that it can be enabled by default. Here are my thoughts.
There are two areas of improvements:
1. scheduling, and
2. process handling, i.e., how to have multiple vacuum processes running
at any time.
