Hello,

Please disregard my previous email. I just realized that these switches are being passed to "pg_ctl" not to "postgres" directly.

Cheers,

Hello,

I'm looking through the RC script used to manage PostgreSQL 8.3 and I'm curious about the defaults used for the postgresql_flags variable. The script sets the default value to "-w -s -m fast". What were these supposed to do?

Both -w and -m appear to be invalid flags for postgresql 8.3. The -s option is documented as "show statistics after each query".

The text of the script is as follows:

postgresql_flags=${postgresql_flags:-"-w -s -m fast"}
