IMNSHO, it's a no-brainer for the todo (but I think it's more complicated than adding some comparisons -- which are working now): postgres=# explain select ctid from foo where ctid >= '(3786,67)'::tid limit 1; QUERY PLAN ------------------------------------------------------------------ Limit (cost=0.00..0.05 rows=1 width=6) -> Seq Scan on foo (cost=0.00..16422.00 rows=333333 width=6) Filter: (ctid >= '(3786,67)'::tid) (3 rows) merlin -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
