I have just found to my surprise:
============== running regression test queries ==============
parallel group (13 tests): char name int2 text float4 oid int4 varchar int8 float8 boolean bit numeric
PID USERNAME PRI NICE SIZE RES STATE TIME WCPU CPU COMMAND
27747 prlw1 72 4 596K 276K RUN 277.7H 98.10% 98.10% sh
277.7H being just over 11.5 days!
Have any of you tried
PostgreSQL 7.2 on acorn32-unknown-netbsd1.5ZB, compiled by GCC egcs-1.1.2
on an Acorn RiscPC with a SA-110? (This is the well known "halting problem" :) )
Cheers,
