Hello I have noticed that my postgresql database sees a constant growth to some of the system files:
184M 17112 Database=# select relname from pg_class where relfilenode = 17112; relname --------------------------------- pg_attribute_relid_attnam_index (1 row) 77M 17115 Database=# select relname from pg_class where relfilenode = 17115; relname --------------------------------- pg_attribute_relid_attnum_index (1 row) 44M 17121 Database=# select relname from pg_class where relfilenode = 17121; relname ------------------------ pg_class_relname_index (1 row) These files represent 305M out of the 454M of my database. Any hints on why it is so and how I can fix it would be greatly appreciated. Dropping and reloading is next to useless. I am using 7.1.3 under FreeBSD 4.3.
