Yeah, this is probably the best workaround for now. I think we should look at making it fully concurrent-safe per upthread comments, but that won't be happening in existing release branches. Also, the only case where it's a problem is if the first two index builds finish at almost exactly the same time. It might be possible to overlap the first two index builds with reasonable safety so long as you choose indexes with very different sorting costs (eg, integer vs text columns, different numbers of columns, etc). regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 1: 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
