If you're going to do queries that involve update/delete across large inheritance trees, that bug fix is unavoidably going to cost you some cycles. Having said that, though, the append_rel_list data structures aren't especially large or complex, so it's a mite astonishing that you could notice this extra copying cost in the context of everything else that happens in a large inherited UPDATE. I am wondering if you've misidentified the commit that made the difference --- especially since you claim there's a penalty for "all" queries, which there manifestly couldn't be with this particular patch. If not, there must be something rather unusual about your queries or schema. Care to provide a self-contained test case? regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-performance mailing list (pgsql-performance@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-performance
