Re: Crash in postgres/linux on verly large database

Different file system but we've loaded 39,000,000 row tables (about 30 gigs of spatial data) without any issues ... CPU
loadwas 1.something for a while but not problems with loading, indexing or doing the stats command. I might suspect the
underlyingOS ...

Subject: [GENERAL] Crash in postgres/linux on verly large database


Hi,

we have a table width about 60.000.000 entrys and about 4GB storage size.
When creating an index on this table the whole linux box freezes and the
reiser-fs file system is corrupted on not recoverable.

Does anybody have experience with this amount of data in postgres 7.4.2?
Is there a limit anywhere?

Thanks

Bernhard Ankenbrand
