I would move to LINUX if it was an option :( I'd say if your memory requirements are really as high as you suggest, then anything that allows you to run a 64-bit version of Postgres is a better option than 32-bit Windows. Be that Linux, FreeBSD, Solaris, etc, maybe even OS/400. Especially if your database requires good performance, Windows is known to be a significantly non-optimal choice. So saying Linux is not an option really reduces your problem to choosing between getting it to work with a lot lower memory footprint or not at all. Are those viable options? <Windows rant> I have to work on a Windows PC these days. For Christ's sake, how long have they had the opportunity to fix basic flaws like scroll-bars not working properly (if you drag one and slip off the bottom part of the window it's back on top again)? Or mouse scrolling when using the scroll wheel over a piece of user-interface that doesn't have focus (Answer; install katmouse)? Or basic file-system performance? Or detaching a USB-keyboard without halting the OS for a second? </Windows-rant> Alban Hertroys -- If you can't see the forest for the trees, cut the trees and you'll see there is no forest. !DSPAM:737,4c74b77710405088597927! -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
