If you were to run multiple autovacuum processes the way they are today, maybe. But that's not my intention -- the launcher would be the only one to read the catalogs; the workers would be started only to do a single VACUUM job. This reduces the risk of this kind of problems. -- Alvaro Herrera http://www.CommandPrompt.com/ The PostgreSQL Company - Command Prompt, Inc. ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 1: 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
