set_append_rel_pathlist supposed that, while computing per-column width estimates for the appendrel, it could ignore child rels for which the translated reltargetlist entry wasn't a Var. This gave rise to completely silly estimates in some common cases, such as constant outputs from some or all of the arms of a UNION ALL. Instead, fall back on get_typavgwidth to estimate from the value's datatype; which might be a poor estimate but at least it's not completely wacko. That problem was exposed by an Assert in set_subquery_size_estimates, which unfortunately was still overoptimistic even with that fix, since we don't compute attr_widths estimates for appendrels that are entirely excluded by constraints. So remove the Assert; we'll just fall back on get_typavgwidth in such cases. Also, since set_subquery_size_estimates calls set_baserel_size_estimates which calls set_rel_width, there's no need for set_subquery_size_estimates to call get_typavgwidth; set_rel_width will handle it for us if we just leave the estimate set to zero. Remove the unnecessary code. Per report from Erik Rijkers and subsequent 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. Changes between all PostgreSQL releases are recorded in the file HISTORY. 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/.
