I am considering moving to 7.3 from 7.2. I have the
obnoxious toast index growth problem of doom. In 7.2 I am
not allowed to reindex toast tables, because they are of
type 't'. How smug :)
The problem is I don't want to move to 7.3 unless I can be
certain this is going to work. There are many incompatible
changes in 7.3, and I will need to audit tens of thousands
of lines of queries before I can make the move. Can someone
reassure me? It says you can reindex toast tables in the
changelog, but ...
Also I assume REINDEX in 7.3 still requires exclusive
access? That could be a bummer.
