Why is http://www.postgresql.org/message-id/54e79f9c.4090...@2ndquadrant.com not worth a discussion? I don't see your response in http://www.postgresql.org/message-id/cam3swzty9fmrn9q8umsqn9bnedtjk68fkitomhhsxy2koyv...@mail.gmail.com really debating why it's definitely worth the cost. I'm not saying it's *not* worth it, just that it has to be considered.
