Now that the upper planner uses paths, and now that we have proper hooks to inject paths into the upper planning process, it's possible for foreign data wrappers to arrange to push aggregates to the remote side instead of fetching all of the rows and aggregating them locally. This figures to be a massive win for performance, so teach postgres_fdw to do it. Jeevan Chalke and Ashutosh Bapat. Reviewed by Ashutosh Bapat with additional testing by Prabhat Sahu. Various mostly cosmetic changes by me.
The PostgreSQL contrib tree
---------------------------
This subtree contains porting tools, analysis utilities, and plug-in
features that are not part of the core PostgreSQL system, mainly
because they address a limited audience or are too experimental to be
part of the main source tree. This does not preclude their
usefulness.
User documentation for each module appears in the main SGML
documentation.
When building from the source distribution, these modules are not
built automatically, unless you build the "world" target. You can
also build and install them all by running "make all" and "make
install" in this directory; or to build and install just one selected
module, do the same in that module's subdirectory.
Some directories supply new user-defined functions, operators, or
types. To make use of one of these modules, after you have installed
the code you need to register the new SQL objects in the database
system by executing a CREATE EXTENSION command. In a fresh database,
you can simply do
CREATE EXTENSION module_name;
See the PostgreSQL documentation for more information about this
procedure.
