Tom Lane cd2a2ce904 Change have_join_order_restriction() so that we do not force a clauseless join
if either of the input relations can legally be joined to any other rels using
join clauses.  This avoids uselessly (and expensively) considering a lot of
really stupid join paths when there is a join restriction with a large
footprint, that is, lots of relations inside its LHS or RHS.  My patch of
15-Feb-2007 had been causing the code to consider joining *every* combination
of rels inside such a group, which is exponentially bad :-(.  With this
behavior, clauseless bushy joins will be done if necessary, but they'll be
put off as long as possible.  Per report from Jakub Ouhrabka.

Backpatch to 8.2.  We might someday want to backpatch to 8.1 as well, but 8.1
does not have the problem for OUTER JOIN nests, only for IN-clauses, so it's
not clear anyone's very likely to hit it in practice; and the current patch
doesn't apply cleanly to 8.1.

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 including some of the more
common listed below:

C++ - http://thaiopensource.org/development/libpqxx/
JDBC - http://jdbc.postgresql.org
ODBC - http://odbc.postgresql.org
Perl - http://search.cpan.org/~dbdpg/
PHP - http://www.php.net
Python - http://www.initd.org/
Ruby - http://ruby.scripting.ca/postgres/

Other language binding are available from a variety of contributing
parties.

PostgreSQL also has a great number of procedural languages available,
a short but not complete list is below:

PL/pgSQL - included in PostgreSQL source distribution
PL/Perl - included in PostgreSQL source distribution
PL/PHP - http://projects.commandprompt.com/projects/public/plphp
PL/Python - included in PostgreSQL source distribution
PL/Java - http://gborg.postgresql.org/project/pljava/projdisplay.php
PL/Tcl - included in PostgreSQL source distribution

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/.
