I'm having a mad scientist moment.
I bet it would be possible to hack pgpool to do this. Just have it
shoot all the queries that come in to it at the normal database, AND at
a text file or something like that.
Not sure that's any better than using pgsql logging to do the same
thing, but it certainly doesn't seem like it would be that hard to do.
