That might be possible. However, I think that we should change only
aset.c about this article.
I thought further: We can check whether context was used from the last
reset even when blocks list is not empty. Please see attached patch.
The effect of the patch that I measured is as follows:
o Execution time that executed the SQL ten times.
(1)Linux(CPU: Pentium III, Compiler option: -O2)
- original: 24.960s
- patched : 23.114s
(2)Linux(CPU: Pentium 4, Compiler option: -O2)
- original: 8.730s
- patched : 7.962s
(3)Solaris(CPU: Ultra SPARC III, Compiler option: -O2)
- original: 37.0s
- patched : 33.7s
