Hi,

I've upgraded my production system to 741 yesterday, and just discovered
this log message: statistic buffer is full.

What does it mean? filing up too fast, no more stats, need to grow?
What should I do?

Also, Many thanks for this great versionn of PostgreSQL, keep going...

Revgards

If you see this a lot, it might be worth increasing PGSTAT_RECVBUFFERSZ.

Hm. I wonder whether something is interfering with the stats collection
code on your system? I can't recall anyone else reporting seeing this
log message, so I'm not convinced that PGSTAT_RECVBUFFERSZ is too small.

What platform are you using, again?

Just noticed now, it also happend on 7.3.5 (the log message was
different...)

Do you need something to analyze it?
