The following bug has been logged on the website: Bug reference: 6629 Logged by: Tom Forbes Email address: t...@tomforb.es PostgreSQL version: 9.1.3 Operating system: Windows 7 64bit Description:
On a test database with 10,000 rows, each containing a array of 50 unique random integers from 0 to 1000 creating a gist index on the column with gist__int_ops as an option fails with the following error: "too many LWLocks taken". My application is not leaking locks: running this through pgadmin results in the same error. Creating the index without gist__int_ops or with gist__intbig_ops succeeds however. Creating the index on the same number of rows with only 25 elements succeeds. The documentation (http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.1/static/intarray.html) states that using gist__intbig_ops is "more suitable for indexing large numbers of distinct array values" not that gist__int_ops cannot handle large numbers of distinct values. I have extracted out some code from the project I was working on that reproduces the problem on my machine.
