Subject: RE: Forever running AnalyzeLooks like nobody offered to increase sort_area_size for the session that is doing analyze - at least to such size that it will require only one merge phase. See Steve Adams web site for formula how to calculate the size, but I think that 20M should be more than enough.Alex Hillman
