Hm. I experimented a bit and looked at the code, and I find I was not remembering ANALYZE's behavior exactly right: it only processes all the tables inside one transaction if you start it inside a transaction block (ie, after BEGIN, or inside a function). If you just run it by itself then it does a transaction per table, just like VACUUM. So I'm thinking there's something you're not telling us about exactly how you invoke ANALYZE. > When i finish to write this email, i juste hit more than 3200 lock owned > by the same transaction ! Could you show us some of those locks (a few dozen lines from pg_locks)? regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
