I'm not sure that, but as you suggested, we can minimize the failover
time by using the following operation even in 9.0.

    1. Reset max_standby_delay = 0 in postgresql.conf
    2. pg_ctl reload
    3. Cancel all the queries or all the conflicting ones
    4. Create a trigger file

For now, I'll use the above when building the HA system using 9.0
and a clusterware.
