why is this? This is very limiting ...

It's 2TB...

Okay.. that is good for a few years. What do we do after 2007?


I was pointing out that it's not all *that* limiting.  If it's not too
difficult (ie: isn't something that affects disk layout or internal
postgres things..) I certainly don't have a problem w/ moving to a 64bit
int.

My thinking was, if you're allowing a user to use that much space, they're probably better off with an unlimited quota... unless you don't vacuum often and there are heavy updates/deletes performed on that user's relations.


Internally there isn't a problem (as I see it) with using a bigger data type.
