Maybe I'm just still being naive, but I'm not seeing the dependency of automation of vacuum on table-space reusability. Or is it just that the there's only one hacker who can do it, and table-space reusability is way more important? [Oui. D'Accord.] If there is a dependency, I'd be interested in learning what it is. If it's just a man-power thing, then I'm just wasting your time. Sorry. PS: I checked the "\h create database" It don't say nothin' about needing to connect to template1 to create a database, nor does it say that it will copy the current database as a starter, which may or may not be true... The docs at postgresql.org also don't say nothin' about connecting to template1. -- -- -- "TANSTAAFL" Rich lynch@lscorp.com
