PostgreSQL, of course, has no such ridiculous limits. Whether a specific application running on top of PostgreSQL would have a limitation like that, is of course a different question - that might certainly be possible, even though the limit mentioned is a really weird number. I find it really hard to parse the text of that post to even understand what they mean, but it's rather obviously filled with other completely incorrect technical statements, so I wouldn't pay any attention to this one in particular. (e.g. since when did you need port 25 to download an email attachment? and suddenly they mention oracle metasploits, which obviously wouldn't work on postgres) -- Magnus Hagander Me: http://www.hagander.net/ Work: http://www.redpill-linpro.com/ -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
