Thanks Maurice and Alan
This is all really worth thinking about for planning this stuff. I would in
general think that a move towards floating point internal
representation would be worthwhile. Some comments on your above comments -
I am probably "teaching my granny to suck eggs" but thought I woul
When the buffer needs to reallocate, it grows by a multiple of a fixed amount
(plbuf_buffer_grow). The multiple is computed such that the growth is large
enough to meet the demand.
plbuf_buffer_grow = 128KB (set in plbuf_bop)
growth_multiplier = (top_of_buffer + needed_space - size_of_buffer) /

No, it is worse than that. Generally, we have PLFLT
