The DBMS can do the work for you, but it is still extra work (because the row must be physically moved from one location to another, possibly to a different file), and it may deteriorate the physical distribution of data. | |

Jul 20, 2011 at 12:42 | comment | added | Péter Török | Then you must move rows from one partition to another when deleting users, which is definitely not how partitions are intended to be used. | |
