I've just been sent this link by our DBA (pro MySQL but even more Anti-Postgres): http://www.janus-software.com/fb_fyracle.html I want to know how they've calculated the numbers that they're created those pie graphs from. The only thing I can think of that Postgres doesn't have for 'transactions' is two-phase commit, and yet it's given it 1/2 functionality. Anybody else care to comment? -- Russ ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 2: you can get off all lists at once with the unregister command (send "unregister YourEmailAddressHere" to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx)
