Thanks.

I'm using PostgreSQL 8.0.2.

Hello.
I'm getting an Out Of Memory error when I try to create a GiST index on a geometry column (PostGIS) with approximately 33,000,000 rows. I can truncate the data in the table, create the GiST index on the empty table, but when I try to reload the data via pg_restore I get the error. I get the error also if I try creating the GiST index on the table with the 33,000,000 rows.
Are there limitations with the GiST index? Has anyone seen this?

I seem to remember mention of memory-leak fixes being applied to the GiST code not too long back - might be worth checking the archives for the bug/hackers list.

TIP 9: In versions below 8.0, the planner will ignore your desire to
      choose an index scan if your joining column's datatypes do not
      match
