Actually ulimit is unlimited for user postgres and when the server was

I feel a bit lost, because it was running pretty well for the last couple
months. This table is a data stage table where some data are imported in from
OLTP databases, this every day. Indexes are dropped before inserting data and
created when insertion has finished. The structure didn't change since a while.
Daniel,
Was this 'free' output before or after the crash? Also, have you combed
through /var/log/messages for anything interesting that happened around the
time of the crash? Which postgresql version is this?
