(Dan's example) And this one seems entirely a theoretical possibility. I spent a little time looking it over, and I don't see how it could be made to work from hot standbys without an unbounded flow of predicate lock information from all standbys to the master *plus* blocking commits on the master for the duration of the longest round trip latency to any standby.
