Unfortunately, I need:
- the SUM of some values, grouped per day
- the MAX of some other value, grouped per day
- the timestamp where the MAX above happened (per day, of course)
The "num" columns are events, and sometimes I need to know not only the
amount of a certain event per day, but also WHEN the MAX of some event
happened...
I guess I have to use a Composite Type (something like "numeric,
timestamp") + user defined aggregate?
