If that's how the developers feel about rules, i.e they can't be bothered to make any changes to the rules code any more, no matter how minor (e.g. this TRUNCATE issue), then you should explicitly state in the manual that they are depreciated, and stop making stupid statements like "so if many rows are affected in one statement, a rule issuing one extra command is likely to be faster than a trigger" that encourage people to use rules ! -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
