I tend to agree. If anything we're likely to want the reverse - the ability to throttle WAL *generation* on the master so streaming can keep up. I see a lot of value in throttling base backup transfer rates. It's something PgBarman does per-tablespace using rsync at the moment, but it'd be nice if it available as an option possible over the streaming replication protocol via pg_basebackup so it was easier for people to use ad-hoc and without all the shell access wrangling. -- Craig Ringer http://www.2ndQuadrant.com/ PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Training & Services -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
