The safest most current value you can use is that of the oldest transaction currently running (also known as RecentXmin in the code). If you choose anything older than that you're safe too. I don't think you can obtain RecentXmin in SQL (short of writing a C function) -- Alvaro Herrera http://www.CommandPrompt.com/ The PostgreSQL Company - Command Prompt, Inc. -- Sent via pgsql-admin mailing list (pgsql-admin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-admin
