Hackers, It occurs to me that I would find it quite personally useful if the vacuumdb utility was multiprocess capable.
For example, just today I needed to manually analyze a database with over 500 tables, on a server with 24 cores. And I needed to know when the analyze was done, because it was part of a downtime. I had to resort to a python script. I'm picturing doing this in the simplest way possible: get the list of tables and indexes, divide them by the number of processes, and give each child process its own list. Any reason not to hack on this for 9.3? -- Josh Berkus PostgreSQL Experts Inc. http://pgexperts.com -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
