style="font-size:10.0pt"> </span><pclass="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt">I’m new to the core PostgreSQL
code,so pardon the question if the answer is really obvious, and I’m just missing it, but I’ve got a relatively large
webapplication that uses PostgreSQL as a back-end database, and we’re heavily using memcached to cache frequently
accesseddata.</span><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt"> </span><p class="MsoNormal"><span
style="font-size:10.0pt">I’mlooking at modifying PostgreSQL (in some way) to push changes directly to our memcache
servers,in hopes of moving towards a system where only writes are actually sent to the databases, and reads are
exclusivelysent to the memcache servers.</span><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt"> </span><p
class="MsoNormal"><spanstyle="font-size:10.0pt">I’m guessing that I could intercept the WAL writes, and use this
informationto push out to my memcache servers, similar to a replication model.</span><p class="MsoNormal"><span
style="font-size:10.0pt"> </span><pclass="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt">Can somebody point to the most
logicalplace in the code to intercept the WAL writes? (just a rough direction would be enough)- or if this doesn’t make
senseat all, another suggestion on where to get the data? (I’m trying to avoid doing it using triggers).</span><p
