The original bug report states the problem as being that the archiver stays for a noticeable period after postmaster shutdown. My patch fixes that very safely. It doesn't fix your request for redesign, which I accept is still pending and I've explained why. I don't see any reason to leave the original problem hanging just because the fix isn't as wide as we might really like. -- Simon Riggs 2ndQuadrant http://www.2ndQuadrant.com ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 6: explain analyze is your friend
