Hi!

A thought just hit me and I got a bit worried... If OIDs are "globaly"
unique and I have a very high data-throughput on my database, i.e. I do a
lot of inserts and deletes, is it then possible to "run out" of OIDs? If
this can occur, will it cause any problems?

Need I worry? =)

Regards,
Patrik Kudo
