I looked closer at the rows that got -1 xobject_id.
$ select magic_id, count(*) from qqq where xobject_id = -1 group by 1 order by 1;

So, I checked original counts for these magic_id:
$ select magic_id, count(*) from sssssss.xobjects where magic_id in

groupby 1 order by 1;

$ select min(magic_id), max(magic_id), count(distinct magic_id), sum( case when magic_id between 30343295 and 32505983
then1 else 0 end ) as count_in_range from sssssss.xobjects;

So, the ids are not clustered.
at least the magic_id. but since these are more or less chronological, it means that these rows were added to db quite
sometime apart:

What is important, that even if creation_tsz matches for given magic_id - data in other rows are very different - in a
waynot justifiable by simple update of rows. It looks like the content of the row would be made from some other rows?
Checked the last magic_id that we have problems with: 32505983.
Original data:
$ select xobject_id, magic_id, some_column_01, some_column_2, creation_tsz, md5(xxxx) from qqq where magic_id =
32505983;
xobject_id | magic_id | some_column_01 | some_column_2 | creation_tsz | md5

(1 row)
(the selected columns ate the first 6 columns of the table).
As you can see the row with correct xobject_id seems to be perfectly ok.
But what about the rows with xobject_id = -1 ? I used creation_tsz to find them:
$ select xobject_id, magic_id, some_column_01, some_column_2, creation_tsz, md5(xxxx) from sssssss.xobjects where
creation_tszin ('2011-07-21 05:04:36+00', '2011-07-21 12:04:21+00');
xobject_id | magic_id | some_column_01 | some_column_2 | creation_tsz | md5

(2 rows)
Please note that the rows match *perfectly* aside from the 2 first columns ?!
Let's look into some more, to get more rows to work on:
$ select xobject_id, magic_id, some_column_01, some_column_2, creation_tsz, md5(xxxx) from qqq where magic_id in
(31785087,31850623, 31981695, 31588479, 32505983) order by creation_tsz;

So we have 14 missing xobject_ids:
$ select xobject_id from qqq where xobject_id in
(34943758,34971890,34986625,35146513,35147343,35150207,35207670,35248094,35248630,35262548,35337757,35338337,35891226,35896800);
xobject_id
------------
(0 rows)
OK. So based on it all, it looks like for some rows, first two columns got mangled.
But why? System columns for the 14 rows in source table:
$ select xobject_id, ctid, xmin, xmax, cmin, cmax from sssssss.xobjects where xobject_id in
(34943758,34971890,34986625,35146513,35147343,35150207,35207670,35248094,35248630,35262548,35337757,35338337,35891226,35896800);

Does it tell you anything?
