Well, that's a fair point. Another issue though is whether it makes sense for XLOG_BLCKSZ to be different from BLCKSZ at all, at least in the default case. They are both the unit of I/O and it's not clear why you'd want different units. Mark, has your testing shown any indication that they really ought to be separately configurable? I could see having the same configure switch set both of 'em. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-patches mailing list (pgsql-patches@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-patches
