A new VACUUM FULL command does old-style vacuum by locking the table and shrinking the on-disk copy of the table. + Transactions - There is no longer a problem with installations +that exceed four billion transactions. + + OID's - OID's are now optional. Users can now create tables +without OID's for cases where OID usage is excessive. + + Optimizer - The system now computes histogram column statistics +during ANALYZE, allowing much better optimizer choices. + Security - A new MD5 encryption option allows much more secure storage and transfer of passwords. A new unix-domain socket authentication option is available on Linux and *BSD systems. |
