Just FYI for anyone that's experienced corruption... we've looked into doing row-level checksums at work. The only
challengewe ran into was how to check them when reading data back. I don't remember the details but there was an issue
withdoing this via SELECT rules. It would be possible if you were willing to put writable views on all your tables
(whichisn't actually as horrible as it sounds; it wouldn't be hard to write a function to automagically do that for
you).
