After a few enhancements and pushing the replication system through a series of tests, including 48+ hours of heavy load and other tortures, the Slony-I project team is presenting the Release Candidate 1 for the 1.0.0 release.

The system performed very well under even extreme conditions. Taking down a replica for 8 hours and let it catch up against a loaded system was as little a problem as overloading the master server until it started to swap with over 100 processes runnable.

All signals are go and RC1 should be the last pre-release download that requires a reinstallation of the replication software. The release date is scheduled for July 1st, Canada Day.

Please visit the Slony-I homepage to download the rc1 tarball for your own tests.
