Hi All,
I've worked out how to munge the Opensource to allow me to express
integer constants in k....only 4 files need to be altered, its really
sweet!
This allows us to do things like:
create table x (a integer) with page_size=8k;
modify x to hash unique on a with minpages=120k;
insert into x(a) values(5k);
etc...
The 'k' is case insensitive, it could be a 'K'.
Before I go through the hassle of submitting a DDS etc I was wondering
if there was any desire to allow megabytes, Gigabytes etc.

I refer you to the comments Karl made on the desirability of supporting
huge data page sizes for data warehousing (right at the end).
'Potential Catalog Updates - Ingres Community Wiki'
(http://community.ingres.com/wiki/Potential_Catalog_Updates)
At some point we may see multi-megabyte page sizes (!), so why limit it
whilst you are already messing with the code.
