Yes I am working on this. I am about 50% of the way through the patch but
have been held up with other work. For those who are interested, it
basically allow:
1) creation of different 'storage' locations. Tables and indexes can be
created in different storage locations. Storage locations can also be
assigned to schemas and databases. Tables and indexes will default to the
schema storage location if STORAGE 'store name' is not provided to CREATE
.... This will cascade to the default database storage location if
the schema was not created with STORAGE 'store name'.
2) the patch will allow different storage locations to have different
rand_cost parameters passed to the planner.
3) the patch *will not* address issues concerning quotas, resource
management, WAL/clog, temp or sort spaces.
Will keep everyone posted if/when I finish.
Thanks,
Gavin
