instead of "producing smaller ID values" (which could potentially collide if you decide to keep a few "old" records), try switching to bigserial. even if you get a million requests per day, producing a billion new records, you won't exhaust the keyspace before several billion days (almost 50 million years from now) -- Javier -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
