This is the second report we've seen of relatively new 9.0 installations shutting down due to wraparound (the other was bug #5718). I find this disturbing. If we're lucky, the cause is already fixed: http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb?p=postgresql.git;a=commitdiff;h=b58c25055ef6d7097618c680f6768689a110d529 but if that's the only contributing factor then why weren't we seeing similar reports about 8.3 and 8.4? I'm worried that there is some other bug in 9.0 autovacuum. Has anyone stress-tested 9.0 to see if autovacuum manages to keep the wraparound threshold moving forward? 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
