It might be interesting, if possible for you, to recompile PG with -DCATCACHE_FORCE_RELEASE, which should cause PG to
immediatelyrelease cached information when it's no longer being used. You'll be trading memory usage for CPU cycles,
ofcourse, but it might be better for your situation. We may still be able to do better than what we're doing today,
butI'm still suspicious that you're going to run into other issues with having 500 indexes on a table anyway.
Thanks, Stephen
