Sorry seems like I am missing some thing here.
What is the difference between int2 & int4 as far as index scan is concerned?
I did try to update to 8.0 but it is not taking my dump from 7.4.7. If I
remember right it was complaining about pg_database being not present. I posted
a message on forums no response so I had to abort it. I will give it a short
again when I have some time.
I think pg_database belongs to pgadmin. I can drop those tables and create a
dump but then if for some reason I have to restore a old dump them I will be in
trouble.
Thanks,
