Are you sure you want Postgres, and not something smaller? BDB, or SQL Lite, for example? "Postgres is bloatware by design: it was built to house PhD theses." -- J. Hellerstein (who ought to know) But having said that ... given virtual memory and cramped configuration settings, Postgres would certainly run in an 8M machine. Maybe "crawl" would be a more applicable verb than "run", but you could execute it. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 8: explain analyze is your friend
