There has been some mild interest +in this in the past so I thought I might try and start a sourceforge +project with what I have so far. + +>From past discussions, it is clear to me that a direct port +of postgres which uses threads instead of processes is not a +good idea, how about an embedded version that uses threads. +A multi-threaded postgres might be good for that. +The version I am working on is slower in terms of transaction +throughput than the current postgres but it uses less system +resources and does not require shared memory. + +I know it is possible to embed the current postgres but I +believe that is a single user system. + +Comments? + + +Myron Scott +mkscott@sacadia.com + + +---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- +TIP 3: if posting/reading through Usenet, please send an appropriate +subscribe-nomail command to majordomo@postgresql.org so that your +message can get through to the mailing list cleanly +
