Huh, that's weird. We've fixed some bugs in the past that led the stats
collector to consume excessive CPU --- but that was all pre-8.3.
My version is 8.3.3. Complied from FreeBSD ports. I just updated my
ports tree and that is the most up to date officially (sup)ported version.
The process is still running:

Do you have a whole lot of tables in this database?
One database has 140 tables, the other has 62. (There are two other
database instances but they are rarely used.)
(Or even more directly: how large is $PGDATA/global/pgstat.stat ?)

Thanks,
