Hi, In relation to this thread: https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/0B4197B9-5DB8-4475-A83C-38DA5965782A%40etasseo.com > I ran the pg_dump process again this morning, ensuring that the standby > parameters were set, and it completed successfully with the > hot_standby_feedback enabled. In case I were to set the hot_standby_feedback param to "on" at my slave node for the _only_ reason that I would like to make a dump of a database while replication is running, how would it affect the primary node performance-wise? Worth mentioning: I do not require the dumped data to be highly up-to-date, I just need a static snapshot, knowing perfectly well that data is updated continuously while dumping. Are there perhaps other ways to perform a dump of a hot standby node without affecting the primary node performance and without stopping or pausing the replication?
