Hold it right there, full stop. If you've got corruption you've either found a rare corner case in postgresql (unlikely, corruption is not usually a big problem for postgresql) OR you have bad hardware. Test your RAM, CPUs, and hard drives before going any further. Data corruption, 99% of the time, is not the fault of postgresql but the fault of the hardware. ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 4: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster
