Why do you want to avoid this?

I would have thought for sure that it was your indexes growing. Maybe you should try looking at the individual files in the data directory to see which ones are growing, and then use the filename to look up the item in pg_class via the relfilenode column to find out what your problem objects are. > NOTE: Also the reltuples always stay at 0 (zero). > I dont know how to interpret that.

It means you haven't done an ANALYZE after changing the size of the database. cjs -- Curt Sampson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> +81 90 7737 2974 http://www.NetBSD.org Don't you know, in this new Dark Age, we're all light. --XTC ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 8: explain analyze is your friend
