to go beoynd 10MB, as demonstrated by Gavin Sharry's example of dropping a schema with ~25000 objects. The really bogus thing about the limit was that it was enforced when a state file file was read in, not when it was written, so you would end up with a prepared transaction that you can't commit or abort, and the only recourse was to shut down the server and remove the file by hand. Raise the limit to MaxAllocSize, and enforce it also when a state file is written. We could've removed the limit altogether, but reading in a file larger than MaxAllocSize would fail anyway because we read it into a palloc'd buffer. Backpatch down to 8.1, where 2PC and this issue was introduced.
PostgreSQL Database Management System ===================================== This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL database management system. PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types and functions. This distribution also contains C language bindings. PostgreSQL has many language interfaces including some of the more common listed below: C++ - http://thaiopensource.org/development/libpqxx/ JDBC - http://jdbc.postgresql.org ODBC - http://odbc.postgresql.org Perl - http://search.cpan.org/~dbdpg/ PHP - http://www.php.net Python - http://www.initd.org/ Ruby - http://ruby.scripting.ca/postgres/ Other language binding are available from a variety of contributing parties. PostgreSQL also has a great number of procedural languages available, a short but not complete list is below: PL/pgSQL - included in PostgreSQL source distribution PL/Perl - included in PostgreSQL source distribution PL/PHP - http://projects.commandprompt.com/projects/public/plphp PL/Python - included in PostgreSQL source distribution PL/Java - http://gborg.postgresql.org/project/pljava/projdisplay.php PL/Tcl - included in PostgreSQL source distribution See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install PostgreSQL. That file also lists supported operating systems and hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL system.
