Yes, isn't that interesting? It's always in a group of 25 rows. This is
always random. Say 800,000 to 800,025 out of 12 million represents one
random group of 25 rows.
>What's the (24+1) supposed to convey?
One time we thought we counted 24 rows. (in a row - yes adjacent)

Yes

We've tried SQL COY and psql \copy and always get random results - 0,1, or 2
blocks of 25 rows missing.
Is there a pre-compiled version of postgres we can try ? Where could I
download that? We built postgres with GNU make 3.80, the documentation says
3.76 and higher is ok.
