I aggree that adding a bunch of new rarely used fields to pg_pool_t might not be a very good idea. Still storing these options here looks convenient (accessing, updating...). What do you think if I add something like this in pg_pool_t instead? typedef boost::variant<string,int,double> pool_opt_value_t; typedef std::map<pool_opt_key_t,pool_opt_value_t> opts_t; opts_t opts; (in reality I suppose it will be more compicated but will have something like this in base). Usually opts will be empty or have only one or two settings, so it will not consume much space. Or where do you suggest to store them instead? BTW, I see we already have in pg_pool_t: map<string,string> properties; ///< OBSOLETE I wonder what it was supposed to be used for and why it is marked obsolete? -- Mykola Golub -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe ceph-devel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
