Tom Lane 6e5d9f278c Avoid O(N^2) behavior when enlarging SPI tuple table in spi_printtup().
For no obvious reason, spi_printtup() was coded to enlarge the tuple
pointer table by just 256 slots at a time, rather than doubling the size at
each reallocation, as is our usual habit.  For very large SPI results, this
makes for O(N^2) time spent in repalloc(), which of course soon comes to
dominate the runtime.  Use the standard doubling approach instead.

This is a longstanding performance bug, so back-patch to all active
branches.

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/.
