into indexscans on matching indexes.  For the moment, it only handles
int4 and text datatypes; next step is to add a column to pg_aggregate
so that all MIN/MAX aggregates can be handled.  Per my recent proposal.

deferred triggers: either one can create more work for the other,
so we have to loop till it's all gone.  Per example from andrew@supernews.
Add a regression test to help spot trouble in this area in future.

decides whether to use hashed grouping instead of sort-plus-uniq
grouping. The function needs an annoyingly large number of parameters,
but this still seems like a win for legibility, since it removes over
a hundred lines from grouping_planner (which is still too big :-().

possible now that DELETE has a USING clause so that the user can join
other tables in a DELETE statement without relying on this behavior.

in UPDATE. We also now issue a NOTICE if a query has _any_ implicit
range table entries -- in the past, we would only warn about implicit
RTEs in SELECTs with at least one explicit RTE.

As a result of the warning change, 25 of the regression tests had to
be updated. I also took the opportunity to remove some bogus whitespace
differences between some of the float4 and float8 variants. I believe
I have correctly updated all the platform-specific variants, but let
me know if that's not the case.

functions. This patch optimizes int2_sum(), int4_sum(), float4_accum()
and float8_accum() to avoid needing to copy the transition function's
state for each input tuple of the aggregate. In an extreme case
(e.g. SELECT sum(int2_col) FROM table where table has a single column),
it improves performance by about 20%. For more complex queries or tables
with wider rows, the relative performance improvement will not be as
significant.

ExecProcNode() with a NULL value, so the test couldn't do anything
for us except maybe mask bugs.  Removing it probably doesn't save
anything much either, but then again this is a hot-spot routine.

few palloc's.  I also chose to eliminate the restype and restypmod fields
entirely, since they are redundant with information stored in the node's
contained expression; re-examining the expression at need seems simpler
and more reliable than trying to keep restype/restypmod up to date.

it. Alvaro Herrera.

OPENed on non-SELECT commands such as EXPLAIN or SHOW (anything that
returns tuples is allowed).  This flexibility already existed for
bound cursors, but OPEN was artificially restricting what it would
take.  Per a gripe some months back.

performance hack Tom introduced recently. This means we can avoid
copying the transition array for each input tuple if these functions
are invoked as aggregate transition functions.

To test the performance improvement, I created a 1 million row table
with a single int4 column. Without the patch, SELECT avg(col) FROM
table took about 4.2 seconds (after the data was cached); with the
patch, it took about 3.2 seconds. Naturally, the performance
improvement for a less trivial query (or a table with wider rows)
would be relatively smaller.

not the brand of vodka. Complete FETCH <sth> <sth> with FROM and IN, not
FROM and TO (which is still pretty incomplete, but at least its the right
syntax).

temp table deletions) won't be counted ... which given heavy usage of

to vacuum pg_class and pg_attribute.  Per reports from Steve Crawford
and others.

pg_dump.  Rudimentary docs and regression tests included.

old comment in the code claimed that this was necessary. Since it is not
actually necessary any more, it is clearer to remove the comment and
just return NULL instead -- the return value of ExecHash() is not used.

proposal for OUT parameter support.  The columns don't actually *do*
anything yet, they are just left NULLs.  But I thought I'd commit this
part separately as a fairly pure example of the tasks needed when adding
a column to pg_proc or one of the other core system tables.

implement any new feature, it just pushes the 'not implemented' error
message deeper into the backend.  I also tweaked the grammar to accept
Oracle-ish parameter syntax (parameter name first), as well as the
SQL99 standard syntax (parameter mode first), since it was easy and
people will doubtless try to use both anyway.
