I agree. Allowing existing backends to commit transactions after the postmaster has died doesn't strike me as being that useful, and is probably more confusing than anything else. That said, if it takes some period of time between the death of the postmaster and the shutdown of any backends, we *need* to ensure that any transactions committed during that period still make it to durable storage. -Neil ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 1: subscribe and unsubscribe commands go to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
