There is no string field. There are CHAR, VARCHAR, TEXT, and a few other

What's the problem with big files? ReiserFS v2 doesn't seem to support
it, while v3 seems just fine (of the ondisk format)
That said,
Before we get too involved in speculating, shouldn't we actually measure the
performance of 7.1 on XFS and Reiserfs? Since it's easy to disable fsync,
we can test whether that's the problem. I don't think that logging file
systems must intrinsically give bad performance on fsync since they only

Here is a radical idea...
What is it that is causing Postgres trouble? It is the file system's attempts
to maintain some integrity. So I proposed a simple "dbfs" sort of thing which
was the most basic sort of file system possible.
I'm not sure, but I think we can test this hypothesis on the FAT3
