This is normal Unix behavior. Leave it running for a few more days and you'll that nothing wrong happens. Why do you think you need "free" memory? Only if the swap memory start getting used a lot you need to worry about memory consumption. You should upgrade to 8.1.3 BTW. -- Alvaro Herrera http://www.CommandPrompt.com/ The PostgreSQL Company - Command Prompt, Inc. ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 3: Have you checked our extensive FAQ? http://www.postgresql.org/docs/faq
