I'm sure this has been up before, but hey, let's take it another round. Why don't we change the default shutdown mode for pg_ctl from "smart" to "fast"? I've never come across a single usecase where "smart" is what people *want*... Not sure if others have?
Yes, I realize it's somewhat of a backwards compatibility thing - but it will at least not change things for most packages, since I believe all those use "fast" anyway. -- Magnus Hagander Me: http://www.hagander.net/ Work: http://www.redpill-linpro.com/ -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
