> Could you give me some idea on what circumstances cause this to happen? IIRC, it's an order-of-operations mistake during backend shutdown: the proc structure is deallocated while it's still possible to receive an interrupt from another backend --- and if you get such an interrupt, you need the proc. So from the user's point of view it's pretty unpredictable. Short answer: upgrade. This is not the only nasty bug in 7.2.1. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 5: Have you checked our extensive FAQ? http://www.postgresql.org/docs/faqs/FAQ.html
