Yes that was done based on reviews (and based on general attitude of not adding more knobs that are similar in meaning). It is briefly documented in the replication config section. Same is true for wal_receiver_timeout btw. > I think that we should either introduce a new GUC parameter (say > logical_replication_retry_interval?) for this or update the > description of wal_retrieve_retry_interval. IMO the former is better. > I am not quite sure adding more GUCs is all that great option. When writing the patches I was wondering if we should perhaps rename the wal_receiver_timeout and wal_retrieve_retry_interval to something that makes more sense for both physical and logical replication though. -- Petr Jelinek http://www.2ndQuadrant.com/ PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, 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
