Hi,

I need to implement a Load Balancing solution in the PostgresSQL
database. Actually we are working with postgres 8.1 but postgres 8.2 is
planified to be upgrade in short.

I read about it, and would like to know any experience with this.

Did you ever need Load Balancing?
What did you implement?
Is it working fine? Any big trouble?

Thanks in advance,
