The restriction is on the number of rows in one PGresult, not the total size of the query result. You could use single-row mode, or use a cursor and fetch some reasonable number of rows at a time. If you try to inhale all of a many-gigarow result at once, you're going to have OOM problems anyway, even if you had the patience to wait for it. So I don't think the existence of a limit is a problem. Failure to check it *is* a problem, certainly. 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
