>From what I know about Postgres it is making use of shared memory.
I would really love to use postgres under 386BSD but 386BSD, though
a very nice and stable system now, does not have shmem in it's present
state.

Question: Is it possible to use other IPC mechanisms iin postgres to
replace shmem functionality?

Or do we have to implement shmem in 386BSD?
