(dynamic loading on a DEC is very slow) I assume you're using postgres 4.1 on DECstation/Ultrix. Another reason why you might want to upgrade it to the latest release! In 4.2, I've reworked a dynamic loader on Ultrix which substantially reduces the time to load an object file (on the order of couple seconds instead of minutes!). Go grab the new one! -andrew
