Heikki Linnakangas	15c121b3ed	Rewrite the FSM. Instead of relying on a fixed-size shared memory segment, the ... free space information is stored in a dedicated FSM relation fork, with each relation (except for hash indexes; they don't use FSM). This eliminates the max_fsm_relations and max_fsm_pages GUC options; remove any trace of them from the backend, initdb, and documentation. Rewrite contrib/pg_freespacemap to match the new FSM implementation. Also introduce a new variant of the get_raw_page(regclass, int4, int4) function in contrib/pageinspect that let's you to return pages from any relation fork, and a new fsm_page_contents() function to inspect the new FSM pages.	2008-09-30 10:52:14 +00:00

Tom Lane	cc59049daf	Improve handling of prune/no-prune decisions by storing a page's oldest ... unpruned XMAX in its header. At the cost of 4 bytes per page, this keeps us from performing heap_page_prune when there's no chance of pruning anything. Seems to be necessary per Heikki's preliminary performance testing.	2007-09-21 21:25:42 +00:00
