I don't think that being conservative in accepting pgbench options is the right way to go. It's already so easy for a non-expert to shoot themselves in the foot that we don't do ourselves any favours by carefully weighing the merits of an expert-orientated feature. Have you ever read the man page for rsync? It's massive, with a huge number of options, and rsync is supposed to be a tool that's widely used by sysadmins, not a specialist database benchmarking tool. -- Peter Geoghegan http://www.2ndQuadrant.com/ PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Training and Services -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
