That shouldn't matter --- ANALYZE actually deliberately ignores very-wide values so as not to run out of memory. You sure you haven't changed default_statistics_target?

Which PG version are you using exactly? regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 5: Have you checked our extensive FAQ? http://www.postgresql.org/docs/faqs/FAQ.html
