I don't know that I'd make that argument for those two versions. If you compare 7.4.x to 8.2.x, then yes I'd say the later version is noticeably more stable. If nothing else, its ability to defend itself against transaction wraparound is a big leg up over 7.4. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 4: Have you searched our list archives? http://archives.postgresql.org/
