But do you know why that is a must?
I believe a graceful shutdown (fast and smart) of a replication set is expected to be in sync. Of course we can change the policy to allow walsnder to stop before confirming all WAL have been applied. However walsender doesn't have an idea of wheter the peer is intentionally delaying or not. > > One idea is to let logical workers send delaying > > status. > > > > How can that help? If logical worker notifies "I'm intentionally pausing replication for now, so if you wan to shutting down, plese go ahead ignoring me", publisher can legally run a (kind of) dirty shut down. # It looks a bit too much, though.. regards. -- Kyotaro Horiguchi NTT Open Source Software Center
