Giving a try with worker_spi on 9.4, I see no problems as well: $ ps ux | grep bgworker michael 3906 0.0 0.1 2594780 7456 ??

Ss 8:21AM 0:00.02 postgres: bgworker: worker 2 $ psql -c 'show shared_preload_libraries' shared_preload_libraries -------------------------- worker_spi (1 row) Regards, -- Michael -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
