The reason the symptoms come and go when varying unrelated stuff is that it might be chancing to clobber momentarily-unused memory rather than live data structures. (In the above example, the queue of pending FK trigger events is likely what got clobbered.) regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 4: Have you searched our list archives? http://archives.postgresql.org
