Hi,

Can I use a Postgre table as hashtable\\?

It's PostgreSQL or Postgres, BTW

when I do select where column='test', I want this to be done by hashtable,
not linear, not by b-tree. I do not need to sort, sum or else I just want
to get the value as fast as possible.

There are hash indexes. Read the docs about them though.
