Hi guys, I've seen a lot of traffic around the developer lists about performing live backups by duplicating the WAL control files, but no examples of this actually working. I don't need instant fallback or any of the funky stuff listed in the TODO file, but I need to build a database which is no less than 10 minutes out of date. The source database has several gigabytes of data in it, so a pg_dump isn't really good enough :-)
