I've been beating on the database throughout the development cycle and
on the beta. I haven't tested some particular features like the new
tsearch stuff but have done a lot of stress testing. The stability of
the database has been really remarkable.
Since there is a catalog bump my suggestion would be to wrap beta2
asap...hopefully that will be the last one. wrt moving to RC1 and
beyond, it's looking good to me...give me a heads up if you are
looking for testing in particular areas.
