1.0 worked great for me aswell, but when I put it in an actual production environment - and as you say testing under system load on planned hardware - I encountered problems. The problems occured when not "treating" the database well; volently closing connections during heavy queries and ungently shutting the database down. It is a sad thing, but such situations might occur in my system, so my database must deal with it some way. I'm not saying that the database should do miracles, but some sort of error fixing must exist in cases the database encounters unexpected behavior. I'm going to keep testing the 1.1b2dev, and will hopefully be able to contribute something to this project... Thank you for your answer! Regards Bent
