I've got a crash with a cluster. Nothing found in the logfile, but a message about a Segfault, so I get a coredump and here is the backtrace : Core was generated by `postgres: postgres postgres [local] SELECT '.

A munin plugin sent this query "select count(*) as pages from pg_freespacemap_pages " every 5 minutes ( since 1 year, now ) and we obtain graph. I notice that the graph says that our freespacemap is empty ( a few thousand of pages ) since our first crash. And sometime, the number of pages increase, and we've got a crash. If you want more detail, ask me ...
