I wouldn't go that far: 9.1 is very new. Certainly the release notes do not explain the change enough: part of the reason I wrote: http://blog.endpoint.com/2011/09/postgresql-allows-for-different.html Simon has a point, but I think that having applications switch from serializable to repeatable read is a pain point people should pay when going to 9.1, rather than adding some switch now. -- Greg Sabino Mullane g...@endpoint.com End Point Corporation PGP Key: 0x14964AC8
