I think that's already on the roadmap --- it's one of the reasons we ended up with a SELECT-like syntax for CREATE STATISTICS. But it didn't get done for v10. If we do look at that as a substitute for "make an expression index just so you get some stats", it would be good to have a way to specify that you only want the standard ANALYZE stats on that value and not the extended ones. 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
