Are there any issues with 8.0 on Windows? There was a report of the stats monitor dying under heavy load just the other day.

I don't know if you'd have to reconfigure any part of windows to make it possible, or just change the setting in postgresql.conf ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 2: you can get off all lists at once with the unregister command (send "unregister YourEmailAddressHere" to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx)
