I'd rather spend effort in fixing the problems that arise from big databases; for example Hannu's patch for concurrent vacuum attacks one of the problems that IMHO are important. More elaborate partitioning does too. Anyway, if you're very excited about it, I don't think it's impossible to code a super-postmaster that would redirect a client to the real postmaster. I even think it can be done without modifying the regular postmaster. -- Alvaro Herrera http://www.CommandPrompt.com/ PostgreSQL Replication, Consulting, Custom Development, 24x7 support ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 1: if posting/reading through Usenet, please send an appropriate subscribe-nomail command to [EMAIL PROTECTED] so that your message can get through to the mailing list cleanly
