Re: Bitmap index - first look

After looking at additional heap and b-tree index placed in pg_bitmapindex 
namespace...

Additional heap contains unique values and page's number with offset number in 
bitmap index, b-tree index contains tuples with the same values and ItemPointer 
to heap's row. So, heap is an unnecessary step - b-tree index should store 
ItemPointer to the bitmap index directly.
