One could have one setting for the total memory usage and pg could use statistics or some heuristics to use the memory for different things in a good way. Then that setting could have an auto setting so it uses 40% of all memory or something like that. Not perfect but okay for most people. -- /Dennis ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 8: explain analyze is your friend
