BRIN de-summarization

alvherre · alvherre · commit c655899ba9ae · 2017-04-01T16:10:04.000-03:00
When the BRIN summary tuple for a page range becomes too "wide" for the values actually stored in the table (because the tuples that were present originally are no longer present due to updates or deletes), it can be useful to remove the outdated summary tuple, so that a future summarization can install a tighter summary. This commit introduces a SQL-callable interface to do so. Author: Álvaro Herrera Reviewed-by: Eiji Seki Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/20170228045643.n2ri74ara4fhhfxf@alvherre.pgsql
