Well, the answer to that is "if it hurts, don't do that". You couldn't expect to process more than a very small number of very simple queries with so few buffers. (Example: a simple INSERT involving a btree index will require at least four concurrently pinned buffers if there's a need for a btree page split; a join query would require at least one buffer per table and index involved, etc.) Hubert was using a reasonably large number of buffers, so his case sounds more like an actual bug, but I'd call the above just pilot error. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 1: if posting/reading through Usenet, please send an appropriate subscribe-nomail command to [EMAIL PROTECTED] so that your message can get through to the mailing list cleanly
