My only comment would be, if you want reliable replication, use delta-syncrepl.

This really strikes me.

1. CHANGES contains a lot of references to fixes made to syncrepl and

delta-syncrepl. And it seems not every issue is resolved yet.

delta-syncrepl has been very solid for me, with the exception of the occasional edge case. The last time there was an edge case encountered was with 2.4.22 (4/24/2010).

2. delta-syncrepl cannot be used with multi-master replication.

This will no be the case in the near future.
