Hello,
I'm looking through the RC script used to manage PostgreSQL 8.3 and
I'm curious about the defaults used for the postgresql_flags variable.
The script sets the default value to "-w -s -m fast". What were these
supposed to do?
Both -w and -m appear to be invalid flags for postgresql
Hello,
Please disregard my previous email. I just realized that these
switches are being passed to "pg_ctl" not to "postgres" directly.
Cheers,
Joe
