What is the use case for temporary tables on a hot standby server? Perhaps this is a noobie question, but it seems to me that a hot standby server's use by* applications* or *users* should be limited to transactions that don't alter the database in any form.
However, I can see where temporary tables might be needed at the system level (if not already available) in order to prepare more efficient plans for some complex read-only queries. -- Mike Nolan
