tried it already. i start postmaster with -B 512.
buffer really helps, thanks.
however i got one problem (see below)... but when i started the psql
monitor again,
it did not appear. i'm worried that it would happen again.
applieddata=> SELECT COUNT(*) FROM office, office_application
applieddata-> WHERE office.code = office_application.office_code
applieddata-> AND office_application.active
applieddata-> AND NOT office.deleted;
NOTICE: Message from PostgreSQL backend:
The Postmaster has informed me that some other backend died
abnormally and possibl
y corrupted shared memory.
I have rolled back the current transaction and am going to
terminate your database
system connection and exit.
Please reconnect to the database system and repeat your query.
pqFlush() -- backend closed the channel unexpectedly.
This probably means the backend terminated abnormally before or
while processing t
he request.
