I wouldn't be surprised if it somehow messed you up. I would schedule a database REINDEX on any databases where you used the -f option, and then re-evaluate, if you feel compelled to push this issue. I still doubt that this effort will buy you anything in recoverability. Between the hint bits and the frozen xmin in all the tuples, the clog won't be consulted anyway. If the pursuit of this is causing you to do direct updates of system tables and to resort to VACUUM FULL, you're putting your data at risk for no apparent benefit. -Kevin -- Sent via pgsql-admin mailing list (pgsql-admin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-admin
