I would suspect either bad hardware,a flakey SCSI driver, or a possible kernel bug. If your system is freezing hard, it is NOT postgresql's fault. It simply doesn't have the access to the kind of system resources needed to freeze a machine. Is there a different SCSI driver / card you can try in there? We've (and many others have too) had good luck with the LSI/MegaRAID cards and both the older 1.18 seris and new 2.x series drivers. No freezes, no crashes, no hangs on the boxes with those in them. ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 6: Have you searched our list archives? http://archives.postgresql.org
