Re: [libreoffice-website] website and wiki currently down

I'm kinda glad Postgres was thrown in (on the last call I was in on,
anyway)... In Postgres you can configure continuous transaction logging
which basically uses the replication infrastructure to dump a binary
transaction log file every 16MB (configurable) of transactions. These can
be replayed in conjunction with a base backup to do a restore and doesn't
add much extra load to the server. That's how replication worked pre 9.1.

The base backup still takes time though, but could potentially be done from
a slave.
