First off, did you use pg_upgrade from an earlier major release? If so, be sure you've dealt with this issue: http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/20110408pg_upgrade_fix Second, the releases you should be considering are on this page: http://www.postgresql.org/ So 8.4.9, 9.0.5, or 9.1.1. If anybody recognized the issue from your description, they probably would have posted by now. The fact that there has been no such post doesn't necessarily mean it's not fixed -- the description is a little vague without table definitions and EXPLAIN ANALYZE output, so people might just not be sure. Since it's arguably in your best interest to update at least to 8.4.9 anyway, the easiest way to get your answer might be to do so and test it. http://www.postgresql.org/support/versioning > Do let me know if this is a new case.
