For example, for a background worker process, DSA segments would likely be created in the main process routine. Without understanding what you are trying to achieve, it is hard to make a good answer. You could always use a ramdisk, but that would be likely be a waste of memory as Postgres has its own buffer pool, killing the performance gains of OS caching. -- Michael -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
