As already said: "out of memory on 8.4.3" (the script consumes up
machines memory till it dies)

My question was how we have to alter our database functions to use the
core xml support, i cannot find any documents about switch from
contrib/xml2 to core xml support? We use xpath_string, xpath and
xpath_nodeset and many more. This page:
http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/XML_Support doesnt say much, especially
regarding the move from contrib to core xml.

Kind regards,
