So you changed table prevstats from temp to permanent; perhaps make it unlogged? I wonder if it'd be useful to have a "pg_stat_flush" or something, which sends out whatever is queued in this session. Then you wouldn't need the reconnection. -- Álvaro Herrera https://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
