Uh ... why? Seems like all you're accomplishing there is to expend cycles that might be wasted, if the particular session never uses the feature. In any case, the PG_init proposal neither adds nor takes away ability to do stuff immediately post-fork, so I think that's an orthogonal consideration. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 6: explain analyze is your friend
