Thread: Tuple size limit.

Tuple size limit.

Greetings pg world,

I have been asked to look into making a relatively simple db app. in which the
tuple size will quite probably grow to more than the 32kbytes limit offered by
recompiling.

I understand that the 7.1 release currently in CVS does not have this
limitation. So I'd like to know if this 7.1 release is imminent; i.e. < ~2 to 3
months?

I am right in thinking that one cannot do textual searches on BLOBs aren't' I?

If it's not out in <3 months, you won't be the only person who's very
unhappy ;-).  I don't want to see us hold up TOAST that long, even if
it means not having some of the other features originally planned for
7.1...
