I very much agree with the requirement here. This needs to work on Linux and Windows, minimum, also. It's obviously impossible to move a production system to a different OS just to use a cool tracing tool. So the architecture must intelligently handle the needs of multiple OS - even if the underlying facilities on them do not yet provide what we'd like. So I'm OK with Solaris being the best, just as long as its not the only one that benefits. -- Simon Riggs EnterpriseDB http://www.enterprisedb.com ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 3: Have you checked our extensive FAQ? http://www.postgresql.org/docs/faq
