on the disk is about 100 times the size of the nightly dumps that get done. I looked

I don't understand the question, are you looking to limit the size of your
database?

Nikola,
I'm not exactly sure what you are asking.
The size of the database is usually determined by the amount of data
stored and not determined beforehand.
Are you refering of "tablespaces", as other DBMSs use them? If so,
Postgres has a tablespace command, but it simply points to a filesy

Setting user's quota on my linux machine wont affect database
quota.It will have impact on users directories.So, it must
be a trick how to set PostgreSQL quota. Or how to link PostgreSQL
database with directories which already have set quotas.

Yes, use contrib/oid2name and 'du', or contrib/dblink.

Any suggestions?
