Hi Tom,
You appear to have been correct. :-)
The being led to believe it was connected to huge_pages turns out to have been a coincidence since we had been working
withhuge_pages.
Postgres happened to crash close enough to trying the huge_pages and did not appear to crash when they were disabled
ledus to make that conclusion.
After a bit more careful testing we found out that postgres did indeed crash even without huge_pages. The setting in
thelink appears to have resolved this issue.
Thanks.
