If pg had a 64-bit system record ID like Oracle does, that'd
take care of this issue, at least until you managed to write
18 quintilliion (1.8e19) rows. At a million rows a second, that'll
take you about 584,000 years.
Yeah, it costs some disk space, but disk space is cheap compared
to having to confront the OID rollover issue over and over again,
and not just because of bad database design.
