Hello.

I'm getting an Out Of Memory error when I try to create a GiST index on 
a geometry column (PostGIS) with approximately 33,000,000 rows. I can 
truncate the data in the table, create the GiST index on the empty 
table, but when I try to reload the data via pg_restore I get the error. 
I get the error also if I try creating the GiST index on the table with 
the 33,000,000 rows.


Are there limitations with the GiST index? Has anyone seen this?


I seem to remember mention of memory-leak fixes being applied to the 
GiST code not too long back - might be worth checking the archives for 
the bug/hackers list.

Thanks.

I'm using PostgreSQL 8.0.2.

AFAIK, no. Perhaps, it's PostGIS problem ? It'd be nice to build
rtree index using contrib/rtree_gist to see if problem in GiST.



Thanks.
