I've tidied up my previous explanation into a wiki page, since it'll come up again. Your comments and suggestions would be appreciated: http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Prioritizing_databases_by_separating_into_multiple_clusters I've also added a general explanation of the issues with prioritizing users/queries/connections/databases: http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Priorities Both pages are very much draft quality. Comments, edits, etc would be most welcome. -- Craig Ringer -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
