Although admittedly it is not directly likely for us to need it, and although I see that there is a BRIN Extensibility
chapter added (good!), I am still a bit surprised by the absence of a built-in BRIN operator class for bigint, as the
BRIN
index type is specifically useful for huge tables (where after all huge values are more likely to occur).

Will a brin int8 be added operator class for 9.5? (I know, quite some time left...)

(btw, so far the patch proves quite stable under my abusive testing...)


thanks,
