I thought there were major concerns about the interaction of those read-only queries with the replicated database transactions in synchronous mode, too. Following threads on the topic has left me a little dubious that it can be truly synchronous, in the sense that it must commit to the clone before the master returns an indication of success to the client. Are we still shooting for that or has "synchronous" become shorthand for "we'll try really hard to keep the lag minimal when we can"? > I don't see any particular reason to come up with names for each of > these combination of modes.
