Hi!

Hope anybody can help me with this issue. I have a fairly large table
(~75 million rows) that where imported without pk. Tried to create a pk
on a supposed unique field, but failed with duplicates. So i issued:
select oldid from table group by oldid having count(*) > 1
and it fails with Out of memory. Tried to create a new pk using: alter
table <table> add newid serial primary key; and it also fails with out
of memory error. 

Are there any settings on postgresql.conf that I may change to prevent
this error?

This is on Windows XP profesional with Postgresql 8.0


TIA,
