I just did some initial playing around with this tool to start testing
the latest syncrep patch. I'm time boxed for today, but just wanted to
say: great tool.

mgrid(at)standby1:~/off/postgresql$ pg_basebackup -x -D /data -vP -h

xlog start point: 0/7000020
34537/18152 kb g(100%) 1/1 tablespaces
xlog end point: 0/7014740
pg_basebackup: base backup completed.
mgrid(at)standby1:~/off/postgresql$ pg_ctl -D /data -l logfile start
server starting
mgrid(at)standby1:~/off/postgresql$ psql postgres
psql (9.1devel)
Type "help" for help.
