If we expect batching at the very beginning, we size nbuckets for "full work_mem" (see how many tuples we can get into work_mem, while not breaking NTUP_PER_BUCKET threshold). If we expect to be fine without batching, we start with the 'right' nbuckets and track the optimal nbuckets as we go (without actually resizing the hash table). Once we hit work_mem (considering the optimal nbuckets value), we keep the value. At the end of the first batch, we check whether (nbuckets != nbuckets_optimal) and resize the hash table if needed. Also, we keep this value for all batches (it's OK because it assumes full work_mem, and it makes the batchno evaluation trivial). So the resize happens only once. There could be cases where it would improve performance to allow the NTUP_PER_BUCKET threshold to be exceeded to keep everything in one batch rather than spilling to a second batch, but attempts to generate such a case have so far been unsuccessful; that issue may be addressed with a follow-on patch after further investigation.

PostgreSQL Database Management System ===================================== This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL database management system. PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types and functions. This distribution also contains C language bindings. PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here: http://www.postgresql.org/download See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install PostgreSQL. That file also lists supported operating systems and hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL system. Copyright and license information can be found in the file COPYRIGHT. A comprehensive documentation set is included in this distribution; it can be read as described in the installation instructions. The latest version of this software may be obtained at http://www.postgresql.org/download/. For more information look at our web site located at http://www.postgresql.org/.
