Actually, it's the "easy to use" piece that's near the front of my own priority list. In any case, the expectation that we can get the log shipping fixed sooner than we can get read-only slaves has nothing to do with the relative desirability of the pieces; it's a technical judgment based on what we can see of the problems' difficulty. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
