Unfortunately we can't seem to come up with one. So far we have 2 machines that exhibit the issue, and their databases are highly confidential (State of WA education data). It does seem to require a database which is in the many GB (> 10GB), and a situation where a small subset of the data is getting hit repeatedly by multiple processes. So you could try your own data warehouse, making sure that you have at least 4 connections hitting one query after another. -- -Josh Berkus Aglio Database Solutions San Francisco ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 8: explain analyze is your friend
