Re: Postgresql performance

Hi

The Postgresql package came from the Redhat v9.0 CDROM.
I have checked the version using psql --version and it showed v7.3.2

The duplication of table names is in the same schema.

How to check the pg_dump version?

Thank you,
REgards.

Are you sure you are using 7.3 psql? This sounds like something that
could happen with a pre-7.3 (not schema aware) psql, if there are
multiple occurrences of the same table name in different schemas.

I'd wonder about whether you have the right pg_dump, too.
