Hm, on what filesystem, and what PG version(s)? I'm not completely satisfied by the its-a-kernel-bug theory, because if it were then ISTM extending an index would be subject to the same risks as extending a table; but I see no evidence of index page lossage in Marc's dump. OTOH the usage patterns are different, so maybe PG isn't stressing the write-to-lseek path quite as hard for indexes. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 1: if posting/reading through Usenet, please send an appropriate subscribe-nomail command to [EMAIL PROTECTED] so that your message can get through to the mailing list cleanly
