Provide optimum access method performance
To provide the optimum performance with an access method,
perform the following actions:
- Provide am_scancost and am_stats purpose functions.
- Split scan processing into am_beginscan, am_getnext, am_rescan, and am_endscan purpose functions.
- Return more than one row from am_getnext or am_rescan, as Buffering multiple results describes.
- Register purpose functions as parallelizable, as Executing in parallel describes.
