Hi, I know the issue of pre-fork PostgreSQL has been discussed previously. Someone mentionned pre-fork can be implemented when schemas become available in PostgreSQL because there will be less of the need to run multiple databases.
I think Oracle 7 uses pre-forking and it helps speed up the startup time considerably. Often, there are cases where connection pooling or persistent connection cannot be used efficiently (e.g. replicated or splitted databases over hundreds of machines or where persistent connection opens up too many idle connections). Instead, there's a big need to create a new connection on every query and with PostgreSQL needing to fork on every incoming connection can be quite slow. Any chance of that happening for 7.5? Thanks. ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 3: 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
