Exactly this idea was discussed on P2D2 10 or so years ago and generally dismissed as too much work for negligible performace gain because the disk IO will still dominate. Today I believe that this makes sense.&lt;p&gt;Edit: and probably it is not only about SSDs, but also about cheap DRAM as today in most deployments I know about most queries only touch indices and tuples that are in RAM (and in fact often the whole pg_base is smaller on disk than RAM of the server).</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>JITing PostgreSQL using LLVM [pdf]</title><url>http://anarazel.de/talks/fosdem-2018-02-03/jit.pdf</url></story>
