Peter Eisentraut 39dfbe5791 Spellchecking run, final cleanups 2005-11-04 23:14:02 +00:00
Tom Lane f8529779ee Update obsolete URL, per Chris. 2005-10-21 13:59:05 +00:00
Tom Lane 9bd7ed828e Clean up some obsolete statements about GiST indexes, and add a section
documenting GiST crash recovery procedures, as requested some time ago
by Teodor.  (The GiST chapter doesn't seem quite the right place for
the latter, but I'm not sure what else to do with it.)

Tom Lane 3f6a094be1 Remove statement that GiST indexes aren't WAL-logged. 2005-06-20 14:53:32 +00:00
Neil Conway eda6dd32d1 GiST improvements:
- make sure we always invoke user-supplied GiST methods in a short-lived
  memory context. This means the backend isn't exposed to any memory leaks
  that be in those methods (in fact, it is probably a net loss for most
  GiST methods to bother manually freeing memory now). This also means
  we can do away with a lot of ugly manual memory management in the
  GiST code itself.

- keep the current page of a GiST index scan pinned, rather than doing a
  ReadBuffer() for each tuple produced by the scan. Since ReadBuffer() is
  expensive, this is a perf. win

- implement dead tuple killing for GiST indexes (which is easy to do, now
  that we keep a pin on the current scan page). Now all the builtin indexes
  implement dead tuple killing.

- cleanup a lot of ugly code in GiST

Bruce Momjian 0e2f88a6d5 We don't put URL's in ulink's because the URL is always generated, but
we can put words in ulink and the URL will still be printed.

Peter Eisentraut da1c1144e7 Make spelling of operating system names match official version closely.
And listing QNX 6 as both supported and unsupported is probably not helpful.

Thomas G. Lockhart 2475e87481 Deprecate 'current' for date/time input.
Fix up references to "PostgreSQL" rather than "Postgres". Was roughly
 evenly split between the two before. ref/ files not yet done.
