So you think 2 calls to pg_usleep() can stay; my opinion is 3 can stay. I'm not clear why this particular call is worthy, while dozens of calls in other modules remain unchanged. This seems like a code issue rather than anything to do with Hot Standby in particular, so it should be another thread. Doesn't seem important compared to other things for this release I should work on. Please add to the next CF so it gets proper review. -- Simon Riggs http://www.2ndQuadrant.com/ PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Remote DBA, Training & Services -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
