You're focusing on the indexes when the problem is dead table rows. It's very hard to believe that there's any OS dependence as such involved in that. I wonder whether (a) the Ubuntu and Fedora packages you're using are the same 8.1.x point release; (b) if there's any interesting non-default behavior built into the Ubuntu packaging ... like running autovacuum automatically, for instance. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
