Ending the wait state does not cause data loss. It puts you at *risk* of data loss, which is a different thing entirely. If you want to avoid data loss you use N+k redundancy and get on with life, rather than sitting around waiting. Putting in a feature for people that choose k=0 seems wasteful to me, since they knowingly put themselves at risk in the first place. -- Simon Riggs www.2ndQuadrant.com PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Training and Services -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
