Because it creates a new thread under the Postmaster to handle Avahi events, if I'm reading the Avahi docs right. This is verboten. We have an event loop in the postmaster -- see ServerLoop. Is there a reason the Avahi events could not be hooked in there? -- Alvaro Herrera http://www.CommandPrompt.com/ PostgreSQL Replication, Consulting, Custom Development, 24x7 support ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 4: Have you searched our list archives? http://archives.postgresql.org
