Hi Jeff, Yes, at least once a month, most probably more frequently, maybe even daily. It depends on how costly it would be to get to the data. For our use case back then it was on-prem. I fail to see how a cloud deployment would change anything, since as long as I can connect to a DB and have enough privileges I expect to be able to query the data. The use of private buffers is OK as an optimization but I believe it would be rude to fail the query if they are not used. Maybe it's better to require -Bp here, I'm not sure, but it is acceptable to expect -Bp. The preferred unit for size reporting is bytes as it makes it easier to sort and is fairly easy to up-convert. Whereas a 1GB vs 800MB is harder to sort without some pre-processing. Having a number of block blocks allocated and used is also valuable for analysis of how much is allocated vs how much data we have.
