What's the platform exactly? Is it possible that the postmaster is being launched under very restrictive ulimit settings? If it's a Unix-ish machine, it would be useful to look at "top" and "vmstat" output to see if the machine is under severe memory pressure for some reason. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
