So, from time to time I run an online pg_dump of all the tables as a backup
but not often enough (of course.)

Some time ago I saw this message:
ERROR:  index "pg_depend_reference_index" contains unexpected zero page
at block 23
HINT:  Please REINDEX it.
ERROR:  index "table_p_hash_idx" contains unexpected zero page at block 7
HINT:  Please REINDEX it.

...and the end result was that I needed to take the database
down into single user mode and reindex it.  I read up on it
and it appears that this problem occurs with specific work
load types - whatever that is, I appear to fit.
Not a big problem.

More recently, I've seen postgres get "stuck" doing an insert
and spin doing nothing.  I tried to grab a core with gcore but
it didn't cooperate.  The evidence for that was the usual "INSERT"
next to the postgres process.  This wasn't fun to deal with,
kill -INT had no affect, kill -TERM had no effect and this I was
left with kill -QUIT.  The database has always started up cleanly
after this, so I didn't think too much of it (should have done
another dump....sigh...)  After the last instance of this problem,
I ran an online REINDEX over all of the tables hoping that this
might solve the problem but not long after, I hit the OID problem.

How do I know which one is pg_class?

I can tell which ones hold the data ;)
