Hello,

When postgresql system tables, (tables in pg_catalog) reach size of 10mil
rows, it will slow down some DDL operations, which insert, update or delete
data from pg_* tables. Is it possible to partition the system tables or is
there some other way to improve performance of the DDL operations?

Sincerely,
--
