I commented to Corey (privately) that, while my rewrite extension has gotten me a server that responds quickly to
aggregatequeries, the constant need to refresh the supporting MVs means the system’s load average is constant and much
higherthan before. I’m happy with the tradeoff for now, but it’s a huge waste of energy, and I’m sure it must thrash my
disk.
I’m very interested in what other people think of Corey’s idea.
