It's only one extra bool test in elog(), isn't it? if ((Log_destination & LOG_DESTINATION_CSV) && Redirect_stderr) Hardly seems worth major contortions to avoid, considering the number of cycles an elog() call expends anyway. I thought about adding an assign-hook for Log_destination that forbids setting the CSV bit unless Redirect_stderr is set, but the trouble with that is that it's making unsupportable assumptions about the order in which the GUC variables will be set. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 5: don't forget to increase your free space map settings
