path labels as a bitmap signature. Its optional integer parameter
<literal>siglen</literal> determines the
signature length in bytes. The default signature length is 8 bytes.
- Valid values of signature length are between 1 and 2024 bytes. Longer
+ The length must be a positive multiple of <type>int</type> alignment
+ (4 bytes on most machines)) up to 2024. Longer
signatures lead to a more precise search (scanning a smaller fraction of the index and
fewer heap pages), at the cost of a larger index.
