I have checked console, and there are many psql entries - I have attached two as they all appear fairly similar, some numbers changing in this section : Thread 0 crashed with X86 Thread State (64-bit): rax: 0x0000000000000000 rbx: 0x0000000000000002 rcx: 0x00007fff5fbff448 rdx: 0x0000000000000000 rdi: 0x0000000000002efd rsi: 0x0000000000000006 rbp: 0x00007fff5fbff460 rsp: 0x00007fff5fbff448 r8: 0x0000000000000e03 r9: 0x0000000000000000 r10: 0x00007fff868cf8ca r11: 0x0000000000000202 r12: 0x00000001000d5000 r13: 0x00000001000d2000 r14: 0x0000000000000000 r15: 0x0000000000000003 rip: 0x00007fff868d3886 rfl: 0x0000000000000202 cr2: 0x0000000100188bd5 The ones that vary most are rdi, rcx, rbp, cr2 and r15.
