I've been having problems with a database in postgres 7.1, this database worked just fine for about 6 months, but it is a fast growing database (a lot of records inserted every day, almost none deleted).
The problem is that the database started corrupting indexes, and tables (even system tables, like pg_class). I posted my questions previously with the specific messages, but sadly I got no reply :(... I recovered a backup and installed it on another computer to verify that it was not a hardware problem, but I kept having crashes every week. Last week I decided to install a new computer with postgres 7.2 and I loaded the database on this version. So far, no problem... I would like to know if I could expect this problems to be fixed, because I read on the documentation that version 7.2 was optimized for large databases, or should I check something else. Thank you.
