Having lots of tests is a good thing. Bring 'em on. If you use SQLite for that, then it all runs in a single thread and it could easily take 30 minutes or longer. Now all you have to do is parallelise the tests and everything can work 10 times quicker and it would be much faster than the time SQLite produced. So using PostgreSQL for testing would be both quicker and more accurate, if you set the tests up right. The PostgreSQL regression tests are parallelised - if they weren't we'd produce a lot less work -- Simon Riggs http://www.2ndQuadrant.com/ PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Training & Services -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
