So the memory increase number's would like:
Example for 64-bit m/c
In database, there are 100 tables, each having 2 constraints and 30 live
connections
Size increase = no. of tables * size of (Node*) * number of constraints *
no. of live sessions = 100 * 8 * 2 * 30 = 46.8K
So if such a memory increase seems reasonable, then I think it would be
really beneficial for the load of data in inherited tables.
If no one has objections on this part, then I think this is really useful
patch for PostgreSQL.
