Title: High Performance PostgreSQL for Rails (p. 177)
Example: Typo on page
Page 177 has the following sentence:

The sentence should read: For active rows, since they represent the biggest proportion—the majority of rows—PostgreSQL would likely load the whole table with a sequential scan and then filter out the smaller proportion of soft-deleted rows.
First Post!

Thanks for noticing this and reporting it @martinstreicher. I’ve just submitted a correction to remove the word “deleted” from this line here. Hopefully it makes it into an upcoming print version soon.
