You probably should explain why you think that rather than just rule it out, though I don't think we should be editing what people ask for. We already have autovacuum, which runs VACUUM and ANALYZE to a set schedule. We could have kept that outside core, but didn't. It's not too big a stretch to imagine we could redesign autovacuum as a GP scheduler, with autovacuum as just one/two regular scheduled jobs. -- Simon Riggs www.2ndQuadrant.com PostgreSQL Training, Services and Support -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
