It would bloat the system catalogs by a rather substantial amount, as well as in-memory images of those catalogs (catcaches). Seeing that the field demand for this is next to nil, we're not very likely to do it just for nominal standards compliance. But you're free to build your own copy that way if you like --- that's why it's configurable. BTW, you might as well set it to 256 not 255: alignment considerations mean that the odd byte would just be wasted in most or all of the catalogs. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
