Hi Luke, 
Thank you very much for your prompt reply.
I have got ***much*** more information than  expected ;)

Obviously there are thing to be improved in the current implementation of BMP indexes,
But anyway they are worth usung (I wa pretty impressed from the BMP index performance, after
Reading a PDF document on Bizgres site).

Thanks ahain for the information.

Regards. Milen

Yes.

Insert/Update (but not delete) operations will often invalidate a bitmap index in our current implementation because we
have not implemented a maintenance method for them when insertions re-use TIDs.  We are in the planning stages for an
update that will fix this.

We check for the case of an insertion that causes a re-used TID and issue an error that indicates the index should be
removed before the operation is retried.  This isn't particularly useful for cases where inserts occur frequently, so
the current use-case if for tables where DML should be done in batches after removing the index, then the index
re-applied.

We will be much faster than that!  Concurrency will be less than ideal with our maintenance approach initially, but
there shouldn't be a corruption problem.

Sneeze, cough.
