Yes, I think that using the existing buildfarm framework is a good idea. Do you think we should integrate this into the current buildfarm (although only the selected nodes would run these performance tests) or that it should be a separate farm? regards Tomas -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
