You really haven't told us which approach to scaling you require. Many are available and PostgreSQL is really only good at a few of them. Anyway, current replication is a PITA mostly due to it's inability to easily start from an empty live database and catch up. You might want to throw a developer at helping SLONY along if you're feel master/slave is the right direction, since presumably you will have several slaves. ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 2: you can get off all lists at once with the unregister command (send "unregister YourEmailAddressHere" to [EMAIL PROTECTED])
