I didn't get a lot of comments on my the previous version of my patch to accelerate table locks. http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2011-06/msg00953.php Here's a new version anyway. In this version, I have: 1. Made pg_locks show fast-path locks as well as regular locks, with a new Boolean column to distinguish. 2. Renamed fpLWLock to backendLock, on the belief that we're going to want something like this for quite a bit more than just this one patch. 3. Removed some debugging code. -- Robert Haas EnterpriseDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise PostgreSQL Company
