But this does not necessarily mean that page is not enough to accommodate current tuple(1). This rather means space left on a page is not necessary due to occupation by neighbouring tuples. (2) If we just replace tuple -> page we'll get meaning (1) which is not precisely so. I think existing description is accurate and doesn't need change basically. Thanks for your question anyway! -- Best regards, Pavel Borisov Postgres Professional: http://postgrespro.com <http://www.postgrespro.com; ^ permalink raw reply [nested|flat] 2+ messages in thread
