I'm not sure it's really a good reason for that because it's just a matter of time for them to be broken anyway. But it seems at least a good idea to have a way to build reproducible test cases on production boxes without being perturbed by the other scans running. Would it need a restart and be a global GUC variable or could it be set temporarily per session? -- Guillaume ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 6: explain analyze is your friend
