- sadiq 18y agoHaving a look through the utilities, these seem to be pulling the data from here directly. Would it not be more efficient to co-ordinate with pg on some kind of organised periodic data dump that could be mirrored efficiently? I've got a decent amount of space on a decent box with a sufficiently fat connection. Mirroring pg's data dump on there wouldn't be a problem and would save this site being spidered by umpteen different people.
- kirubakaran 18y agoIf pg can give us nightly snapshots that can be mirrored, it will be awesome.
- kashif 18y agoI wonder, if anyone has put this data to some use.
