Whoops, let me clarify that. What I meant was if PostgreSQL has a version will support 64-bit file(size) I/O and thus be able to support a larger than 2GB database that resides in a single file. (Ostensibly, dealing with, say, a 10GB database that resides on 5 files is more of a hassle than if it only resided in one) _ Philippine Linux Users Group.
