Great to hear!

Just as a side node: as part of a computer camp I downloaded the nightly
snapshot of 2004-21-02, installed MinGW/MSYS, grabbed some external flex and
went away compiling/installing. Worked quite well, apart from some small
configure-foo and hand-flexing ;-)

Then, started the thing up (on XP Prof) and run a load test from a real-world
customer app. Performance was acceptable for an early port, but the
postmaster/backends kept crashing during this test. A small survey showed
that the backends grabbed more and more mem, and the crashed when the memory
exceeded some barrier, roughly 12-13 MB.

Is this known? Worth to sort it out? It has to be noted, that when the clients
re-connected periodically (20 simultaneously) all went well, and I never lost
_ANY_ data!

So far, congrats!
