The mechanism I described in the above-referenced message only occurs for nailed-in-cache system tables. Given Daniels' report (and one or two others) I am suspicious that there's some path whereby rd_targblock can fail to get reset after a vacuum for non-system tables too --- but it hasn't been identified yet. If what Daniels saw is due to a problem like that, then it's pretty harmless. If it's something else, the implications might be more dire. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 3: if posting/reading through Usenet, please send an appropriate subscribe-nomail command to [EMAIL PROTECTED] so that your message can get through to the mailing list cleanly
