Just a note - this is also the solution adopted by Interbase/Firebird and it seems interesting. They already had the same problems PostgreSQL has been under today. Those interested in read about Interbase's architeture, please refer to http://community.borland.com/article/0,1410,23217,00.html. "Classic" is the fork() model, and the "SuperServer" is the threaded model. ------------- Best regards, Steve Howe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 1: subscribe and unsubscribe commands go to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
