files: avoid creating stats hashtable entries for tables that aren't being touched except by vacuum/analyze, ensure that entries for dropped tables are removed promptly, and tweak the data layout to avoid storing useless struct padding. Also improve the performance of pgstat_vacuum_tabstat(), and make sure that autovacuum invokes it exactly once per autovac cycle rather than multiple times or not at all. This should cure recent complaints about 8.1 showing much higher stats I/O volume than was seen in 8.0. It'd still be a good idea to revisit the design with an eye to not re-writing the entire stats dataset every half second ... but that would be too much to backpatch, I fear. |

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. The JDBC, ODBC, C++, Python, and Tcl interfaces have been moved to the PostgreSQL Projects Web Site at http://gborg.postgresql.org for separate maintenance. A Perl DBI/DBD driver is available from CPAN. 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 ftp://ftp.postgresql.org/pub/. For more information look at our web site located at http://www.postgresql.org/.
