Oh yeah, that one is very annoying, can we go fix that one somehow? I think the use of --single has decreased a lot in favor of parallel restore, but it's certainly not all that uncommon... I think the main reason we haven't heard loads of complains is that it isn't the default.. -- Magnus Hagander Me: http://www.hagander.net/ Work: http://www.redpill-linpro.com/ -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
