Just so you know: I've built a test database in PostgreSQL which is a full copy of a large database I have in DB2. On the same physical machine, no less. Many of my large, rather intensive queries are running 4 times faster than in DB2! I stand in awe. You guys have done a real bang-up job!

My understanding was that originally, there was a dump/reload required, but I believe that requirement was negated by a 'resetxlog' utility that Tom Lane created ... ---(end of broadcast)--- TIP 5: Have you checked our extensive FAQ? http://www.postgresql.org/users-lounge/docs/faq.html

Well, done, too! I've been banging on Beta6 with data and queries from DB2, and it's been the easiest transition I've ever had between RDBMSs. Will upgrading from Beta6 to RC1 require dumping and restoring databases? Thanks again for a great product!
