I used rsync to create a base backup. Though I have 10 huge tables
(min 1GB each) that are modified several times a second, thus creating
a base backup hourly means I have to sync arround 10G each time (which
is pretty time consuming).
I do not want to use the standby server. This is why I am pretty happy
with stop - start + recover.
I cannot base backup anymore :(
Is there any other possibility? I cannot use slony or buccardo as I
don't control the number of databases or tables.
I think the best approach is pgpool2 but there seems to be issues with
sequences and those tables depend upon these sequences.
Thank you
