Tom Lane cc988fbb0b Improve ResourceOwners' behavior for large numbers of owned objects.
The original coding was quite fast so long as objects were always
released in reverse order of addition; otherwise, it degenerated into
O(N^2) behavior due to searching for the array element to delete.
Improve matters by switching to hashed storage when the number of
objects of a given type exceeds 64.  (The cutover point is open to
discussion, of course, but some simple performance testing suggests
that hashing has enough overhead to be a loser below there.)

Also, refactor resowner.c so that we don't need N copies of the array
management code.  Since all the resource IDs the code currently needs
to deal with are either pointers or integers, it seems sufficient to
create a one-size-fits-all infrastructure in which everything is
converted to a Datum for storage.

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/.
