+ * planagg.c
+ * Special planning for aggregate queries.
+ *
+ * This module tries to replace MIN/MAX aggregate functions by subqueries
+ * of the form
+ * (SELECT col FROM tab
+ * WHERE col IS NOT NULL AND existing-quals
+ * ORDER BY col ASC/DESC
+ * LIMIT 1)
+ * Given a suitable index on tab.col, this can be much faster than the
+ * generic scan-all-the-rows aggregation plan. We can handle multiple
+ * MIN/MAX aggregates by generating multiple subqueries, and their
+ * orderings can be different. However, if the query contains any
+ * non-optimizable aggregates, there's no point since we'll have to
+ * scan all the rows anyway.
