Just FYI, the reindex step is 100% useless if you're going to do a vacuum full afterwards. Before 9.0 there was some value in doing vacuum full and then reindex, but none whatsoever in the other ordering. As of 9.0 there's just no point at all in doing both. VACUUM FULL rebuilds the indexes anyway. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
