> Hi,
>
> we finished first stage of our proposal for changing of index AM tables
> (see for reference http://fts.postgresql.org/db/mw/msg.html?mid=1029290)
>
> I attached 3 files:
>
> 1. patch_72_systbl.gz - patch to current CVS
> 2. btree_gist.tar.gz - contrib/btree_gist module -
> implementation of Btree using GiST with
> support of int4 and timestamp types.
> 3. test.tar.gz - test suite for brave (not for applying !)
>
> Regression tests and our tests passed fine
> Patch is for today CVS, please apply them asap to avoid possible
> conflicts.
>
> Now we're going to 2nd stage of our proposal.
> We plan to remove pg_index.indislossy (now we have pg_amop.amopreqcheck)
> and pg_index.indhaskeytype (it's just don't used, all functionality
> is in pg_opclass.opckeytype now)
>
> question:
>
> Do we need to normalize pg_amop and pg_amproc tables ?
> Tom was concerned (http://fts.postgresql.org/db/mw/msg.html?mid=1025860)
> about possible performance degradation.
>
> We think it's possible to leave tables as is. Of course it'd require
> some attention when updating these tables.

> Oleg
