pg_class tells me

select relname,relfilenode,relpages from pg_class where relfilenode = 13312283;
relname | relfilenode | relpages
-------------------+-------------+----------
pg_toast_13312279 | 13312283 | 367639

So now I guess I have to find out what 13312279 is..

Ah HA !

# select relname,relfilenode,relpages from pg_class where relfilenode
= 13312279;
relname | relfilenode | relpages
-----------+-------------+----------
email_log | 13312279 | 36821

It just so happens that email_log has around 700,000 rows, that would
explain the space issues.

I do know that email_log is 100% deleteable, so I'll proceed with hosing that.

Does all this sound reasonable ?

Jeff.
