Re: Out of memory on update of a single column table containg just one row.

  Hi,

i tried a simple test:
create temp table _t as select repeat('x',382637520) as test;
update _t set test=test||test;

pg 8.3 32bit fails with
[Error Code: 0, SQL State: 53200]  ERROR: out of memory
   Detail: Failed on request of size 765275088.

pg 8.4.4 64bit works fine

so upgrade to 64bit

regards
Thomas
