Yeah, I was wondering about that too, but it seems a bit ad-hoc from a modularity standpoint. I gave some consideration to the idea of putting these calls directly into fork_process(), but we'd have to be very sure that there would never be a case where it was incorrect to do them after forking. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
