1All system-defined TOAST-able typesFind system-defined types in case of which the system can use the TOAST technique, i.e., save the value in a compressed form or store it in a automatically-created secondary table, which is hidden from the database user (TOAST table).Generalsystem catalog base tables only2020-11-06 14:51MIT License
2All user-defined TOAST-able typesFind user-defined types in case of which the system can use the TOAST technique, i.e., save the value in a compressed form or store it in a automatically-created secondary table, which is hidden from the database user (TOAST table).Generalsystem catalog base tables only2020-11-06 14:51MIT License
3Base table columns where TOASTing is possibleFind all base table columns in case of which the system can use TOAST technique.Generalsystem catalog base tables only2020-11-06 14:51MIT License
4Base table columns where TOAST-ing strategy has been changedFind base table columns in case of which the system can use TOAST technique (due to the data type of the column) and where the toasting strategy has been changed so that it is different than the default strategy determined by the type. Make sure that the new strategy is optimal.Generalsystem catalog base tables only2020-11-06 14:51MIT License
5Base table columns where TOAST-ing strategy has been changed to plainFind base table columns in case of which the system can use TOAST technique (due to the data type of the column) and where the toasting strategy has been changed to plain. It means that potentially, if a value in the column is large enough, it is not possible to save the row.Problem detectionsystem catalog base tables only2021-02-25 17:29MIT License
6Base tables that do not have a TOAST tableFind base tables that (due to the types of their columns) do not have an associated TOAST table for storing out-of-line data.Generalsystem catalog base tables only2020-11-06 14:51MIT License
7Minimum tuple length required before trying to move long column values into TOAST tables has been changedFind base tables in case of which toast_tuple_target storage parameter value is not the default value (2040). "Changing this value may not be useful for very short or very long rows. Note that the default setting is often close to optimal, and it is possible that setting this parameter could have negative effects in some cases. " Make sure that the parameter has an optimal value.GeneralINFORMATION_SCHEMA+system catalog base tables2020-11-06 14:51MIT License
