Agreed. However, a quick grep finds half a dozen other places that are casting MyStartTime to long. We should fix them all. Also note that if any of the other places are using translatable format strings, INT64_FORMAT is problematic in that context, and "long long" is a better answer for them. (I've not dug in the history, but I rather imagine that this is all a hangover from MyStartTime having once been plain "time_t".) regards, tom lane
