Again, this is patching the symtoms instead of going after the cause. The real issue you're trying to address is not being able to set locale per database, which is what we really want. Not that symptomatic cures are out of the question for add-ons, like pgPool (and I could see a lot of uses for a pgPool that could obscure the fact that it was connecting to multiple servers). But they aren't the way to go for the core code. -- --Josh Josh Berkus Aglio Database Solutions San Francisco ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 6: explain analyze is your friend
