If I told you there were some of us who would prefer to attenuate the rate that things get written rather than cancel or delay archiving for a long period of time, would that explain the framing of the problem? Or, is it that you understand that's what I want, but find the notion of such a operation hard to relate to? Or, am I misunderstanding your confusion? Or, none of the above? -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
