Data
- Data types & limitations Which column types work where, and the things pg-xpatch does not do, by design and by current implementation. Types And Limitations pg-xpatch 8 hours ago
- Tuning read performance Size the content cache to your working set, warm it deliberately, lean on indexes, and read cache_stats to know what to change. Tuning Read Performance pg-xpatch 8 hours ago
- Tuning compression & storage How keyframe_every, compress_depth, and enable_zstd trade storage against write speed, and why batching inserts is the cheapest win. Tuning Compression pg-xpatch 8 hours ago
- How storage works Keyframes, deltas, per-group chains, and how pg-xpatch rebuilds a row on read, the model behind the compression. Storage Model pg-xpatch 8 hours ago
- SQL functions Complete reference for the xpatch.* schema, signatures, arguments, and returned columns for every public function. Sql Functions pg-xpatch 8 hours ago
- Server parameters Every pg_xpatch.* GUC, with default, range, change context, and what it controls. Server Parameters pg-xpatch 8 hours ago
- Quickstart: your first versioned table Build a tiny document store with pg-xpatch, from an empty table to seeing the deltas on disk, in six short steps. Quickstart pg-xpatch 8 hours ago
- What pg-xpatch is A PostgreSQL table access method that stores versioned rows as deltas, so a hundred near-identical versions cost about as much as one. Overview pg-xpatch 8 hours ago
- Monitoring & introspection The functions that answer is compression working, is the cache healthy, and how is this group actually stored. Monitoring pg-xpatch 8 hours ago
- Installing pg-xpatch Install pg-xpatch on PostgreSQL 16 with Docker, a prebuilt binary, or a source build, then enable the shared cache and create the extension. Installation pg-xpatch 8 hours ago
- Example: a versioned notes app A real Svelte app where every keystroke is a version, walked through the pg-xpatch parts, schema, aggressive compression config, and the append-only write pattern. Example Notes App pg-xpatch 8 hours ago

- Caching & performance Why pg-xpatch keeps a shared-memory cache, what lives in it, cold versus warm reads, and the storage/read/write trade-off. Caching And Performance pg-xpatch 8 hours ago
- Benchmarks What pg-xpatch's compression and speed look like in practice, drawn from the xpatch delta library and the pgit project built on it. Benchmarks pg-xpatch 8 hours ago
- Backup & restore pg_dump and pg_restore work with xpatch tables, with two things to remember, install the extension first and run fix_restored_configs() after. Backup And Restore pg-xpatch 8 hours ago
