There is a really fundamental problem with this idea, which is that "clustering" of this sort tends to require integration with the operating system. Because PostgreSQL is an OS-agnostic project (save for looking at the world from a POSIX perspective), and Slony-I tries to be, too, that makes it a fair bit challenging to turn either into "a clustering solution." You'll get a lot of "push-back" on attempts to change either project because of the preference for that "agnosticism." -- "cbbrowne","@","acm.org" http://www3.sympatico.ca/cbbrowne/x.html There are two kinds of people in the world: People who think there are two kinds of people and people who don't. _______________________________________________ Slony1-general mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slony.info/mailman/listinfo/slony1-general
