Is there any documentation of the binary format of the 'base' tables?
I found that I can find where a table's data stored with:
SELECT oid FROM pg_database WHERE datname = current_database();
SELECT relfilenode, reltoastrelid FROM pg_class WHERE relname = 'table';
/usr/local/pgsql/data/base/$oid/$relfilenode
From what I understand, deleted records should still be there unless vacuum
removes them.
Is that right?
