The problem is that I can't find the way to exclude query parsing (prepare
step) for custom queries. In other words I want to create a function that
accepts a query text with "$1, $2, etc." and variables as params, executes
the query and returns a set of record. I could use 'execute' in plpgsql but

Hi,
i would like to use a statement replication for postgresql
i have found the following solutions:

pgpool has only two nodes, so this is not an option.
I will never change my underlying database, of course :-)

Because some bugdet issue, I just have a basic SAN environment.

For snapshot, I want to use mksnap_ffs.
But I don't have any experience of using mksnap_ffs to backup pgsql.

should determine SQL inside the function. I want to pass a query as a
