OK.  I'll dig in and can probably figure everything out.  I'll contact
David if I can't.

Thanks.



Maybe you can use too a multi-master replication solution that supports mysql 
and postgresql like symmetricds,  http://symmetricds.sourceforge.net , it is 
developed in java and can works like a library or a daemon, i am using now 
between postgresql machines but it supports replicate heterogeneous database (a 
common usage in the forums it is oracle in a central and many mysql like 
clients), it is a trigger based replication so i think it can be good fit for 
your needs.

Miguel Angel.

More precisely, Postgres is (as yet) incapable of giving DBI-Link the
information it needs.

That's one way.  For others, I can help out on a consulting basis :)

Yes, that's what Postgres is doing.  DBI-link is currently incapable
of pushing down the predicate to the remote system because Postgres
can't give it access to the predicate.

> Anybody knows how improve this?

If I have to push the predicate down, I'll generally write a
set-returning function which takes some of the predicate, limit, and
offset info to build a dynamic sql query against the remote database
using dblink.

I use dbi-link, work fine, but I have problems when I call mysql
tables "linked" and these tables are big, maybe a millon records, the
answers is really slow, I need to wait 5 or more minutes to have an
answer in a single query like this "select * from table limit 10", I
am thinking maybe dbi-link download all the data to pgsql before to
give me the answer.

Anybody knows how improve this?

You should try http://www.anysql.net/en/software/refresh_mysql.zip

It's written in Perl and designed to replicate Oracle->MySQL, but you
could easily emulate the Oracle-side by creating triggers in PG to
capture the changes.

No, but just did and it looks very cool.  Have you used it before?  If
so, would you mind if I ask you some questions?  We could take it off
the list if that's more appropriate.
