heap page, where a set bit indicates that all tuples on the page are visible to all transactions, and the page therefore doesn't need vacuuming. It is stored in a new relation fork. Lazy vacuum uses the visibility map to skip pages that don't need vacuuming. Vacuum is also responsible for setting the bits in the map. In the future, this can hopefully be used to implement index-only-scans, but we can't currently guarantee that the visibility map is always 100% up-to-date. In addition to the visibility map, there's a new PD_ALL_VISIBLE flag on each heap page, also indicating that all tuples on the page are visible to all transactions. It's important that this flag is kept up-to-date. It is also used to skip visibility tests in sequential scans, which gives a small performance gain on seqscans. |

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/.
