It does very well, until the next bug is discovered.

That\'s unfortunate. I\'ve tried to explain my position off list to
Marco,
but it really isn\'t worth debating. FWIW I think this thread was
started
by someone with application issues. The fact is, such things happen.
Unfortunately Marco choses speaks for "any list" and I\'ll just
repeat that I find this instability issue the most significant drawback
for Postgres installations. This doesn\'t mean that there aren\'t other
areas
of priority for other users. And no, I do not want to debate the
meaning
of the word "instability". :-)
