It's interesting that the software is more reliable than the hardware. This comes up on the PostgreSQL lists a lot. A vast majority of the data corruption problems that people report turn out to be hardware failures. PostgreSQL is actually several orders of magnitude more reliable than the average box it runs on. FreeBSD is the same way, in my experience. -- Bill Moran Potential Technologies http://www.potentialtech.com _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
