What Heikki hasn't said is that setting max_prepared_transactions incorrectly has always caused a fatal error at failover, and still does so now when HS is disabled. If these concerns were real ones, then that situation would not have existed for years and would not still do so. 9.0 without HS enabled is fairly untested on the standby, so it's not clear to me turning it off makes you any safer. -- Simon Riggs www.2ndQuadrant.com -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
