All, I have a table with ~ 3 million records. I'm indexing a field holding names, no more than 200 bytes each. Indexing the resulting tsvector takes forever. It's been running now for more than 40 hours on a Linux with PG 8.01, a single Xeon & 4GB RAM. My work_mem postgresql.conf parameter is at 240960 and maintenance_work_mem at 96384, although the index task is using at most 12MB. Task is 99% cpu bound. Is there any way I may speed up the indexing?
