Sure you do, if the new version has a feature that your application "needs", would make things simpler for the developers, would make things simpler for you, etc, etc. For example: Stable has PostgreSQL v7.4, but v8.x have features *needed* by Very Large Databases: - Improved SMP Performance - Table Partitioning - 64-bit Shared Memory - Faster Aggregates - Tablespaces - -- Ron Johnson, Jr. Jefferson LA USA Is "common sense" really valid?
