> That won't work well anyway because the postgres shared_buffers dos not cache things that are sequentially scanned
(ituses a ring buffer for each scan). So, for any data that is only accessed by sequential scan, you're relying on the
OSand the disks. If you access a table via index scan though, all its pages will go through shared_buffers.
In older version too, or only since synchronized scans got in?
