Hi, would it be possible to add a way to create foreign key without checking of prior data? Before you will say it's a bad idea, because then you might get invalid data - i know. You can geet invalid data in column that is checked by foriegn key even now - by temporarily disablnig triggers and/or writing special (or bad) triggers. So, since (as we know) foreign keys are not fault-proof, wouldn't it be good to provide a way to create them without all this time-consuming check? It would come handy for example when loading dumps (disabling fkey for load is bad option, because you need first to create it, before you can disable it, and to create it you need unique constraint on referenced table, which required index - and i don't want index to be created before data is loaded, because it's just too slow. depesz -- Linkedin: http://www.linkedin.com/in/depesz / blog: http://www.depesz.com/ jid/gtalk: depesz@xxxxxxxxxx / aim:depeszhdl / skype:depesz_hdl / gg:6749007 -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
