This patch improves selectivity estimation for the array <@, &&, and @> (containment and overlaps) operators. It enables collection of statistics about individual array element values by ANALYZE, and introduces operator-specific estimators that use these stats. In addition, ScalarArrayOpExpr constructs of the forms "const = ANY/ALL (array_column)" and "const <> ANY/ALL (array_column)" are estimated by treating them as variants of the containment operators. Since we still collect scalar-style stats about the array values as a whole, the pg_stats view is expanded to show both these stats and the array-style stats in separate columns. This creates an incompatible change in how stats for tsvector columns are displayed in pg_stats: the stats about lexemes are now displayed in the array-related columns instead of the original scalar-related columns. There are a few loose ends here, notably that it'd be nice to be able to suppress either the scalar-style stats or the array-element stats for columns for which they're not useful. But the patch is in good enough shape to commit for wider testing. Alexander Korotkov, reviewed by Noah Misch and Nathan Boley |

PostgreSQL Database Management System ===================================== This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL database management system. PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types and functions. This distribution also contains C language bindings. PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here: http://www.postgresql.org/download See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install PostgreSQL. That file also lists supported operating systems and hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL system. Changes between all PostgreSQL releases are recorded in the file HISTORY. Copyright and license information can be found in the file COPYRIGHT. A comprehensive documentation set is included in this distribution; it can be read as described in the installation instructions. The latest version of this software may be obtained at http://www.postgresql.org/download/. For more information look at our web site located at http://www.postgresql.org/.
