Hello Amit,
Thank you for your work. I'm currently working on extension aimed at
planner optimization for partitioned tables
(https://github.com/postgrespro/pg_pathman). At this moment I have an
implementation of binary search for range partitioned tables with basic
partitioning keys (date, timestamp, integers etc). And I'd like to try
to combine your syntax and infrastructure with my binary search
implementation.
There likely will be changes in range syntax and partitions cache
structure based on discussion. So looking forward for your next patch.
