Instead of joining two partitioned tables in their entirety we can, if it is an equi-join on the partition keys, join the matching partitions individually. This involves teaching the planner about "other join" rels, which are related to regular join rels in the same way that other member rels are related to baserels. This can use significantly more CPU time and memory than regular join planning, because there may now be a set of "other" rels not only for every base relation but also for every join relation. In most practical cases, this probably shouldn't be a problem, because (1) it's probably unusual to join many tables each with many partitions using the partition keys for all joins and (2) if you do that scenario then you probably have a big enough machine to handle the increased memory cost of planning and (3) the resulting plan is highly likely to be better, so what you spend in planning you'll make up on the execution side. All the same, for now, turn this feature off by default. Currently, we can only perform joins between two tables whose partitioning schemes are absolutely identical. It would be nice to cope with other scenarios, such as extra partitions on one side or the other with no match on the other side, but that will have to wait for a future patch.

PostgreSQL Database Management System ===================================== This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL database management system. PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types and functions. This distribution also contains C language bindings. PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here: https://www.postgresql.org/download See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install PostgreSQL. That file also lists supported operating systems and hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL system. Copyright and license information can be found in the file COPYRIGHT. A comprehensive documentation set is included in this distribution; it can be read as described in the installation instructions. The latest version of this software may be obtained at https://www.postgresql.org/download/. For more information look at our web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
