Hi,

I'm looking for an explanation of the variable PGBUFFERS.
I just found one reference in the archive, but unusable.
Is it possible to modify this variable ?
Does it make sense, if so, in what cases ?

Thanks

That's easy: it doesn't exist. Perhaps it did once, but I see
no such animal in current sources, nor as far back as 6.5.

There is an NBuffers (-B switch) ... is that what you were looking
for?

regards, tom lane
