TABLESAMPLE, SQL Standard and extensible
Add a TABLESAMPLE clause to SELECT statements that allows user to specify random BERNOULLI sampling or block level SYSTEM sampling. Implementation allows for extensible sampling functions to be written, using a standard API. Basic version follows SQLStandard exactly. Usable concrete use cases for the sampling API follow in later commits. Petr Jelinek Reviewed by Michael Paquier and Simon Riggs

326+
be used to retrieve subset of rows in the table.
327+
The <replaceable class="parameter">sampling_method</replaceable> can be
328+
any sampling method installed in the database. There are currently two
329+
sampling methods available in the standard

338+

339+
Both of these sampling methods currently accept only single argument
340+
which is the percent (floating point from 0 to 100) of the rows to
341+
be returned.
342+
The <literal>SYSTEM</literal> sampling method does block level
343+
sampling with each block having the same chance of being selected and
344+
returns all rows from each selected block.
345+
The <literal>BERNOULLI</literal> scans whole table and returns
346+
individual rows with equal probability. Additional sampling methods
347+
may be installed in the database via extensions.
348+
</para>
349+
<para>
350+
The optional parameter <literal>REPEATABLE</literal> uses the seed
351+
parameter, which can be a number or expression producing a number, as
352+
a random seed for sampling. Note that subsequent commands may return
353+
different results even if same <literal>REPEATABLE</literal> clause was
354+
specified. This happens because <acronym>DML</acronym> statements and
355+
maintenance operations such as <command>VACUUM</> may affect physical
