As long as it's a fixed string there's no reason to set it repeatedly, so this placement looks fine for now. We can reconsider when/if we make it variable and decide what is going to drive it. On reflection, maybe s/walsender/WAL sender/? It doesn't look like we really use the word "walsender" in user-facing docs. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
