Attached is my (admittedly horrible) attempt to add some comments to elog.c regarding this issue. Reviewing this, I'm not sure the performance concern is really an issue (given that the user could choose to enable it or not), but clearly the other issue is a concern. Thanks, Stephen commit 4dcf23e007967892557b7b113a9229cb9fc4575d Author: Stephen Frost <sfr...@snowman.net> Date: Wed Jan 12 12:22:16 2011 -0500 Improve comments at the top of elog.c Add in some comments about how certain usually available backend systems may be unavailable or which won't function properly in elog.c due to the current transaction being in a failed state.
