Hi : Saw this post on BUGS mailing list : "Olleg Samoylov" <olleg_s ( at ) mail ( dot ) ru> writes: >> Opps, template1 must not be vacuumed. >Says who? >If we didn't vacuum template1 then it would be subject to >XID wraparound >problems, unless it had never been modified, which is >something vacuumdb >can't count on. > regards, tom lane Under normal circumstances, there's no need to vacuum template1 right? Its quite difficult to imagine XID wraparound problems occuring in template1.
