The behavior of loading the whole TZ database was there for awhile before anyone noticed; I believe it could only be responsible for a few seconds. So the failed DNS responses must be the problem. Could we get a ktrace with timestamps on the syscalls to confirm that? Of course the $64 question is *why* is 8.0 trying to resolve that name, particularly seeing that the later branches apparently aren't. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 2: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster
