HypoPG

HypoPG is a PostgreSQL extension adding support for hypothetical indexes.

Version 1.2 has been released, and brings the following changes:

New features:

  • Make hypopg work on standby servers using a new "fake" oid generator, that borrows Oids in the FirstBootstrapObjectId / FirstNormalObjectId range rather than real oids. If necessary, the old behavior can still be used with the new hypopg.use_real_oids configuration option.

Bug fixes

  • Check if access methods support an INCLUDE clause to avoid creating invalid hypothetical indexes.
  • Display hypothetical indexes on dropped table in hypopg_list_indexes.

Miscellaneous

  • Change hypopg_list_indexes() to view hypopg_list_indexes.
  • Various documentation improvements.
