v. 8.4.3 I have a table that has several indexes, one of which the table is clustered on. If I do an ALTER TABLE Foo ADD COLUMN bar integer not null default -1; It re-writes the whole table. * Does it adhere to the CLUSTER property of the table and write the new version clustered? * Does it properly write it with the FILLFACTOR setting? * Are all the indexes re-created too, or are they bloated and need a REINDEX? http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.4/static/sql-altertable.html does not seem to answer the above, it mentions the conditions that cause a rewrite but does not say what the state is after the rewrite with respect to CLUSTER, FILLFACTOR, and index bloat.
