FWIW I think there's another problem with streaming replication here, which is that most data flows from client to server, so it would take quite some time for the threshold to be reached. Note that there's no size check in the libpq frontend code. Normally this is not an issue because the bulk of data is expected to flow in the other direction. -- Alvaro Herrera http://www.CommandPrompt.com/ The PostgreSQL Company - Command Prompt, Inc. -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
