Vadim has made a quick patch for row-reusing in index file after vacuum and
I've tested it on my Linux box, 6.5.1 sources. It works fine -
now index file doesn't grow indefinitely ! It still grows (logarithmically)
but not as before. Of course, fully truncating would be fine. but
as Vadim said it's another story.
What's a list of changes for 6.5.2 ? I've seen several patches for 6.5.1
and current tree. Some of them I'd like to see in 6.5.2:
1. Vadim's patch for nbtinsert
2. enabling Index access for multi-column indices by Hiroshi Inoue
3. Descending order Index scan patch by Hiroshi Inoue
