At one point in the development of this feature, it was claimed that allowing negative values would be useful to compensate for timezone differences between master and slave servers. That was based on a mistaken assumption that commit timestamps are recorded in local time; but of course they're in UTC. Nor is a negative apply delay likely to be a sane way of coping with server clock skew. However, the committed patch still treated negative delays as doing something, and the timezone misapprehension survived in the user documentation as well. If recovery_min_apply_delay were a proper GUC we'd just set the minimum allowed value to be zero; but for the moment it seems better to treat negative settings as if they were zero. In passing do some extra wordsmithing on the parameter's documentation, including correcting a second misstatement that the parameter affects processing of Restore Point records. Issue noted by Michael Paquier, who also provided the code patch; doc changes by me. Back-patch to 9.4 where the feature was introduced. |

PostgreSQL Database Management System ===================================== This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL database management system. PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types and functions. This distribution also contains C language bindings. PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here: http://www.postgresql.org/download See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install PostgreSQL. That file also lists supported operating systems and hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL system. Copyright and license information can be found in the file COPYRIGHT. A comprehensive documentation set is included in this distribution; it can be read as described in the installation instructions.
