开源数据库PostgreSQL 8.3 Beta1发布
PostgreSQL全球开发组今天发布了翘首以盼的8.3版本的第一个beta版本。由于空前数量的新补丁包，这个版本引进了比以前任何一个版本都多新的和改进的功能。当然，更多的新功能意味着8.3需要比以前版本更多的用户来测试，所以我们依靠你们来下载、在你的应用程序的开发版上测试。新版本的功能有：
* Greatly improved performance consistency, through HOT, Load Distributed Checkpoint, JIT bgwriter, Asynchronous Commit, and other features.
* TSearch2 full text search integrated into the core code with improved syntax and ease of adding custom dictionaries.
* SQL:XML syntax.
* Logging to database-loadable CSV files.
* Automated rebuilding of cached plans.
* ENUMs, UUIDs and arrays of complex types.
* GSSAPI and SSPI authentication support.
... and many others. See the release notes for a more complete list of new features.
How soon this beta turns into a release depends on testing by our community of users. As soon as possible, please help us with community testing:
* Test installing & configuring the new version.
* Try out the new features, alone or in combination.
* Test porting your old applications.
* Test integration with drivers and other database tools.
* Run performance tests on the new database.
* If you are a Windows developer, try compiling using our new Visual C++ support.
