The page/line stuff is not exactly nonsense, but a very strange priority
of allocating resources. It is almost exclusively useful for generating
reports. It's about as useful as the bit_order attribute - if my
interpretation of 13.5.3 matches reality.
Your interpretation may be wrong, this attribute is quite useful
Isn't it usually the I/O time that is dominant in situations like this?
BTW. I have yet to inspect the actual code.
Not at all, it is much more likely that such an application is CPU bound
(one that does formatted IO)
