Could we do your NOLOGGING automatically in COPY if we test to see if anyone else is connected to our current database? I would _love_ to see pg_dump loads use this automatically, without having to add clauses to pg_dump output. I think we decided we can't do it automatically for all zero-row COPYs because of locking concerns. -- Bruce Momjian | http://candle.pha.pa.us pgman@candle.pha.pa.us | (610) 359-1001 + If your life is a hard drive, | 13 Roberts Road + Christ can be your backup. | Newtown Square, Pennsylvania 19073 ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 2: you can get off all lists at once with the unregister command (send "unregister YourEmailAddressHere" to [EMAIL PROTECTED])
