Yep, but until we get XID-publish-to-master working in 9.1, I think it's probably the best we can do. At least it's no *worse* than having a long-running query on the master at all times. --Josh Berkus -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
