Some kind of design for progress seems like a good plan. Some ideas: - System view(s) This has the advantage of being shown to work at least to a PoC by this patch, and is similar to extant system views like pg_stat_activity in the sense of capturing a moment in time. - NOTIFY Event-driven model as opposed to a polling one. This is attractive on efficiency grounds, less so on reliability ones. - Something added to the wire protocol More specialized, limits the information to the session where the command was issued - Other things not named here Best, David. -- David Fetter <david(at)fetter(dot)org> http://fetter.org/ Phone: +1 415 235 3778 AIM: dfetter666 Yahoo!: dfetter Skype: davidfetter XMPP: david(dot)fetter(at)gmail(dot)com Remember to vote!
