were discussed last year, but we felt it was too late in the 8.3 cycle to
change the code immediately. Specifically, the patch:
* Reduces the minimum datum size to be considered for compression from
256 to 32 bytes, as suggested by Greg Stark.
* Increases the required compression rate for compressed storage from
20% to 25%, again per Greg's suggestion.
* Replaces force_input_size (size above which compression is forced)
with a maximum size to be considered for compression. It was agreed
that allowing large inputs to escape the minimum-compression-rate
requirement was not bright, and that indeed we'd rather have a knob
that acted in the other direction. I set this value to 1MB for the
moment, but it could use some performance studies to tune it.
* Adds an early-failure path to the compressor as suggested by Jan:
if it's been unable to find even one compressible substring in the
first 1KB (parameterizable), assume we're looking at incompressible
input and give up. (Possibly this logic can be improved, but I'll
commit it as-is for now.)
* Improves the toasting heuristics so that when we have very large
fields with attstorage 'x' or 'e', we will push those out to toast
storage before considering inline compression of shorter fields.
This also responds to a suggestion of Greg's, though my original
proposal for a solution was a bit off base because it didn't fix
the problem for large 'e' fields.
There was some discussion in the earlier threads of exposing some
of the compression knobs to users, perhaps even on a per-column
basis. I have not done anything about that here. It seems to me
that if we are changing around the parameters, we'd better get some
experience and be sure we are happy with the design before we set
things in stone by providing user-visible knobs.

improve grammar a tad. Per Greg Stark.

Get rid of VARATT_SIZE and VARATT_DATA, which were simply redundant with
VARSIZE and VARDATA, and as a consequence almost no code was using the
longer names. Rename the length fields of struct varlena and various
derived structures to catch anyplace that was accessing them directly;
and clean up various places so caught. In itself this patch doesn't
change any behavior at all, but it is necessary infrastructure if we hope
to play any games with the representation of varlena headers.

remaining functions, simplify pglz_compress's API to not require a useless
data copy when compression fails. Also add a check in pglz_decompress that
the expected amount of data was decompressed.

Strip unused include files out unused include files, and add needed
includes to C files.
The next step is to remove unused include files in C files.

-hackers a couple days ago.
Notes/caveats:
- added regression tests for the new functionality, all
regression tests pass on my machine
- added pg_dump support
- updated PL/PgSQL to support per-statement triggers; didn't
look at the other procedural languages.
- there's (even) more code duplication in trigger.c than there
was previously. Any suggestions on how to refactor the
ExecXXXTriggers() functions to reuse more code would be
welcome -- I took a brief look at it, but couldn't see an
easy way to do it (there are several subtly-different
versions of the code in question)
- updated the documentation. I also took the liberty of
removing a big chunk of duplicated syntax documentation in
the Programmer's Guide on triggers, and moving that
information to the CREATE TRIGGER reference page.
- I also included some spelling fixes and similar small
cleanups I noticed while making the changes. If you'd like
me to split those into a separate patch, let me know.

Added all lztext comparision functions, operators and a default
operator class for nbtree on lztext.
