Thanks! vacuum did get rid of those messages. The last time
import/rebuild worked it took over 2hrs, now it's down to 30min!
But the original problem ...
I'm finally starting to get some log entries, but they are in
/var/pgsql/log instead of /var/pgsql/postmaster.log - any ideas? probably
an OpenBSd thing with pgwrap - I'll try an OpenBSD newsgroup.
