That's because replication isn't part of basic PG support. You can choose a couple of options, though: PGCluster - Multi-master no delay synchronus replication for load sharing or HA. Large objects are now supported. Slony-I - Master to multi-slave cascading and almost-failover. > The docs also don't mention any GIS support.

Some of the earliest users of PG with large databases were in the GIS realm. > Just the same, I don't feel a big need to migrate folks onto > MySQL, either.
