Is there a way to figure out from the catalogs somehow the largest size in
bytes of the largest tuple in a relation without going one by one over the
relation and calculating that. alternatively, without actually pulling out
the whole tuple from the disk?
(It is necessary for the algorithm to know that value).
10x.
