Since PostgreSQL automatically segments its internal data files to get around such limits, the only place you will hit this limit will be when making backups using pg_dump or pg_dumpall. You may need to pipe the output of those commands into a file splitting utility, and then you'll have to pipe through a reassembly utility to restore. -- Lamar Owen WGCR Internet Radio 1 Peter 4:11 ---(end of broadcast)--- TIP 3: if posting/reading through Usenet, please send an appropriate subscribe-nomail command to [EMAIL PROTECTED] so that your message can get through to the mailing list cleanly

PostgreSQL is smart, and breaks the table files up at ~1GB per each, so it's transparent to you. You shouldn't have to worry about it.
