Hi all,
I regularly do a "cvs update" and compile and test PostgreSQL.
Recently, since about 1 week, I've had a nasty problem.
Doing an "initdb" seems to suck up all available memory and almost
kills the system, before dying itself with a SEGV.
The problem postgress process is:-
/usr/local/pgsql/bin/postgres -boot -x -C -F -D/usr/local/pgsql/data -d
template1
The system becomes VERY unresponsive when this postgres process
starts running, so difficult to attach to with gdb.
I'm stuck for a clue as to how to debug this.
Is anyone else seeing this problem recently?
Is it just a Solaris problem?
(Solaris 2.6 on SPARCstation 5)
Is it just me? :-(
Help,
Keith.
