You could have had other stuff backed up behind the VACUUM FULL lock requests. It's not impossible that you had a deadlock *outside* the database, that is some wait loop that is partially within and partially outside the DB. But if you want me to believe there's a bug in our deadlock detector, you're going to have to offer some actual evidence... regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 2: you can get off all lists at once with the unregister command (send "unregister YourEmailAddressHere" to [EMAIL PROTECTED])
