In the admin guide, under the section "Large Databases" is the following paragraph: Since Postgres allows tables larger than the maximum file size on your system, it can be problematic to dump the table to a file, since the resulting file will likely be larger than the maximum size allowed by your system. As pg_dump writes to the standard output, you can just use standard *nix tools to work around this possible problem. This is a generalization of, most likely, a failing in linux. NetBSD (which I use) will allow file sizes up to 2^64 -- I don't think anyone has generated a postgresql database that large yet. You might want to qualify that with "Operating systems which support 64-bit file sizes (such as NetBSD) will have no problem with large databases" or "some operating systems are limited to 2-gigabyte files (such as linux)" --Michael
