Yes, I think they do. http://www.postgresql.org/community/survey.55 These people seem to understand also. Sync rep *is* important, but it opens up new classes of applications for us. As does SEP. Both of those are more speculative and harder to measure, but we've seen big impact before from this type of new feature. HS appeals to current users. Current users aren't so worried about new applications, they look forward to being able to run queries on their currently idle standby servers. -- Simon Riggs www.2ndQuadrant.com PostgreSQL Training, Services and Support -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
