Well, first off, please confirm that killing off open client transactions (you shouldn't even need to do a full postmaster restart) makes the problem go away. Beyond that, I have no advice except to be prepared to apply a debugger next time. I believe we could fix the problem if we could examine the situation VACUUM is seeing --- but it's so far not been possible to do that, because the triggering conditions are so transient. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 5: Have you checked our extensive FAQ? http://www.postgresql.org/users-lounge/docs/faq.html
