From 2b959d4957ff47c77b2518dcddbf3aa126a1593c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Robert Haas Date: Mon, 5 Dec 2016 10:53:21 -0500 Subject: Reduce the default for max_worker_processes back to 8. Commit b460f5d6693103076dc554aa7cbb96e1e53074f9 -- at my suggestion -- increased the default value of max_worker_processes from 8 to 16, on the theory that this would be harmless and convenient for users. Unfortunately, this caused some buildfarm machines with low connection limits to start failing, so apparently it's not harmless after all. --- doc/src/sgml/config.sgml | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) (limited to 'doc/src') diff --git a/doc/src/sgml/config.sgml b/doc/src/sgml/config.sgml index fdf8b3e9c77..b917f9578ab 100644 --- a/doc/src/sgml/config.sgml +++ b/doc/src/sgml/config.sgml @@ -1982,7 +1982,7 @@ include_dir 'conf.d' Sets the maximum number of background processes that the system can support.
