Is anyone using silent_mode=on ? There's some discussion on
pgsql-hackers [1]http://archives.postgresql.org/message-id/1308926157-sup-7749@alvh.no-ip.org on whether it should be removed altogether in 9.2,
since you can get the same functionality with "pg_ctl start", or nohup.
If you're using silent_mode, what are you using it for?

Not using it. Never did, and won't.

I run with slient_mode=on since all my logging goes to syslog. I don't
need any other output from postgres. I've run this way since 7.1.

I run on FreeBSD so I don't have that OOM killer problem.
