Out Of Memory Error on GiST Index

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?

Thanks.

Jim
