For item:
Improve COPY performance by adding tuples to the heap in batches
(Heikki Linnakangas)
I think we should point out that the batching only applies for COPY
into unindexed tables. Nice as the feature is, that is pretty big
limitation not to mention.
Also, I wouldn't use "to the heap", as I think the main improvement is
from the batching of the wal records, not the heap, and also because
the basic improvement (get data into TABLES faster) can be understood
by users who don't know what a heap is, so we should avoid referring
to extraneous implementation details when they are not critical to
understanding the feature.
Thanks,
Jeff
