It doesn't. This is why the second version of the patch was required, per http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-patches/2004-09/msg00039.php. It even specifically says this is so it fixes the deadlock issues and not just statement_timeout :-) //Magnus ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 6: Have you searched our list archives? http://archives.postgresql.org
