First I give "postmaster &", and then the "monitor" commands. But when I give "retrieve (u.all) from u in pg_user \g", the monitor stay long time; at same time, in other window I watch the memory available with the "pstat -s" statement, and the memory is less every moment, until the process break down. Every time I work with POSTGRES happen the same. Do you know what is happening?. The last test I did, was with a LIBPQ and C program; the same happened. I had break down the process and the memory reduce it also. A "Vfork failed" message was displayed and the machine hanged up. I'm starting my tesis prototype, and I have limit time. Could you say me how can I do to fix it? Thanks. Noemi Romo Villalobos. nromo@mtecv2.mty.itesm.mx Instituto Tecnologico y de Estudios Superiores de Monterrey CETEC 6o.
