Tom Lane dacc185f52 Remove vestigial secondary-split support in gist_box_picksplit(). 
Not only is this implementation of secondary-split not better than the
default implementation in gistsplit.c, it's actually worse.  The gistsplit.c
code at least looks to see if switching the left and right sides would make
a better merge with the previously-split tuples, while this doesn't.

In any case it's rather useless to support secondary split only in an edge
case.  There used to be more complete support for it here (in chooseLR()),
but that was removed in commit 7f3bd86843.
It appears to me though that the chooseLR() code was really isomorphic to
the default implementation, since it was still based on choosing the cheaper
way of adding two sub-split vectors that had been chosen without regard to
the primary split initially.  I think an implementation of secondary split
that could beat the default implementation would have to be pretty fully
integrated into the split algorithm, not plastered on at the end.

Back-patch to 9.2, but not further; previous branches have the chooseLR()
code which I don't feel a great need to mess with.  This is mainly so we
just have two behaviors and not three among the various branches (IOW, this
patch is cleanup for commit 7f3bd86843e5aad84585a57d3f6b80db3c609916's
incomplete removal of secondary-split support).

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/.
