The odds are very high that the bug is in your program rather than libpq, though, because no such problems have been found within libpq recently. valgrind is a fairly useful tool for tracking down such issues. 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
