Saw this linked to on Reddit with the title I quoted in this post's title...
Great news in the world of Postgres: no longer will Common Table Expressions (CTE) be shackled to the evil CTE Optimization Fence! Linky
As I previously blogged about, the optimization fence is a drawback to CTEs in Postgres that in short potentially impacts performance when you use them. So you may use them to make a query neater but you can pay a penalty. If the new commits are all that they promise, this performance hit will be no more! Here's the link to my old post about them - linky - note that they should perform about as well Oracle now!
