Re: Huge number of raws

Hello Bruno and thanks for your replay.
But how PostgreSQL could deal with 1E11 (billions) records in the table?
Do you know how insers will be processed (slow insert problem)?
I have a database with already 50 millions of records (i just doubled my 
25 million database) to check how Postgres will fill itself and it is 
just OK with inserts, even updates.
But my database is 1000 times smaler than the one planned.
Maybe someone did test the database with such a huge amount of records, 
or somebody from develpers could estimate the situation?
I disciver almost all internet :) To find someone having such an amount 
of data in the database, but was not sucsseeded with this.

Regards,
Anton
