Hannu,

Yeah, that's a start.

Well, we could also use a loader which automatically parallelized, but that 
functionality can be done at the middleware level.  WITH ERRORS is the 
most critical part.

Here's the other VLDB features we're missing:

Parallel Query
Windowing Functions
Parallel Index Build (not sure how this works exactly, but it speeds Oracle 
up considerably)
On-disk Bitmap Index (anyone game to finish GP patch?)

Simon, we should start a VLDB-Postgres developer wiki page.
