aggregate functions on massive number of rows

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I have an aggregate function setup (attached) that I'm calling over a
massive amount of data and am running into:

	ERROR:  cannot have more than 2^32-1 commands in a transaction
	CONTEXT:  PL/pgSQL function "float8_jitter_add" line 16 at if

error.  Since I'm able to do count() and avg() over the same values
without this aggregate function, it's theoretically possible.

Something was making me think that it was the extract() that was doing
it (I used to have 'select extract(milliseconds from v_rtt_in) into
v_rtt' and something leaded me to believe the error was with that), but
I don't recall what that is, so it looks like it's just the if like it
says.

Since I'm not really doing anything transaction-oriented in
float8_jitter_add, is there a way to get around this?  Or is this a
limitation in pl/pgsql?

thanks in advance,
-Todd
