At a functional level this is a great problem to solve. We frequently remind users to direct queries to slaves when possible. That is not a good use of my time or the users time. I want to automate this in software without a significant overhead and without putting (and then managing) an additional set of processes between clients and servers. -- Mark Callaghan [email protected] _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~drizzle-discuss Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~drizzle-discuss More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
