I have a table with about 1,400,000 rows in it. Each DELETE cascades to
about 7 tables. When I do a 'DELETE FROM events' I get the following
error:
ERROR: Memory exhausted in AllocSetAlloc(8 4)
I'm running a default install. What postgres options to I need
to tweak to get this delete to work?
Also, if my tables grows to 30,000,000 rows will the same tweaks
still work? Or do I have to use a different delete strategy, such
as deleting 1000 rows at a time.
Thanks. 1 2502

It isn't a Postgres tweak. The only way you can fix it is to allow the
backend process to grow larger, which means increasing the kernel limits
on process data size. This might be as easy as tweaking "ulimit" in the
postmaster's environment, or it might be painful, depending on your OS.
You might also have to increase swap space.
There's a TODO item to allow the list of pending trigger events (which
is, I believe, what's killing you) to be pushed out to temp files when
it gets too big. However, that will have negative performance
implications of its own, so...
Also, if my tables grows to 30,000,000 rows will the same tweaks still work? Or do I have to use a different delete strategy, such as deleting 1000 rows at a time.
On the whole, deleting a few thousand rows at a time might be your best
bet.
BTW: make sure you have indexes on the referencing columns, or this will
take a REALLY long time.

Hi!
We've encountered a strange problem concerning memory usage. In the previous
install the maximum memory amount per page was limited to 8 MB and it was
never reached. Now, after upgrading both hardware and software, running the
same scripts that used to be fine with 8 MB hit the roof all the time. The
maximum memory allocation was set to 128 MB and still PHP encounters fatal
errors with allowed memory size exhausted. Pardon my french,...

My application calls some java functionalities using C++. While running, my application crashes after 1 hour. The reason it saya is "Java: Heap memory exhausted", it couldn't allocate heap memory for further operations as it was exhausted.

Hello,
I have a one PHP script which crawled the URLs and get the job from the URLs.
My logic is so simple.

If existed then update the visited date for that job. otherwise add new job record in database. Currently our database has 11422185 job records. And all are in one table. but...

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
