FWIW, I quite dislike the terminology "shared memory context", because it sounds too much like it means "a context in shared memory". I see that the patch itself doesn't use that phrase, which is good, but can we come up with some other phrase for talking about it? regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
