Few comments: ============= 1. <para> - True if this slot is currently actively being used + True if this slot is currently currently being streamed </para></entry> currently shouldn't be used twice. 2. - /* The time since the slot has become inactive */ + /* The time slot sychronized was stopped. */ TimestampTz inactive_since; Would it be better to say: "The time slot synchronization was stopped."? 3. This is useful for slots on the + standby that are intended to be synced from a primary server I think it is better to be explicit here and probably say: "This is useful for slots on the standby that are being synced from a primary server .." -- With Regards, Amit Kapila.
