I suppose it would depend on how many computers you want to have in this cluster. The main reason why clusters are getting popular recently (albeit not yet for databases, or so it would seem) is because it is cheaper than anything else with similar performance. The main question remains - are there any plans to implement something similar to this with PostgreSQL? I would volunteer to help with some coding, if a "group" was formed to work on this "clustering" module. Regards. Gordan
