I have recollected where we saw this before: http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2003-11/msg01528.php Apparently gettimeofday() has a glitch on some BSD releases. OS X is a BSD derivative and it's not so surprising if it has it too. May I suggest that you try the test program given here: http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2003-11/msg01546.php and file a bug report with Apple if it shows any out-of-order results? I am fairly certain that I tried that test program when I devised it on my own OS X machine, and couldn't get a failure. Maybe it depends on your hardware (hm, could dual CPUs be the key factor)? regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 1: subscribe and unsubscribe commands go to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
