I don't think asking for a 2nd connection back from the standby to the master would be horrible for 9.0. I think it would be quite reasonable, actually; even with 2 connections per slave, you could still have quite a few slaves before the # of connections bogged down the master. --Josh -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
