Yes.
- -- Lets look for duplicates.
- -- And we have lots of them
SELECT count(*) FROM h;
...
(341224 rows)
SELECT DISTINCT firmennummer FROM h;
...
(111060 rows)
SELECT DISTINCT imp_exp_code FROM h;
...
(5 rows)
SELECT DISTINCT position FROM h;

(79 rows)
SELECT DISTINCT branchen FROM h;

(15200 rows)
- ---------------------------
If there is a bug regarding dublicates and btrees, why does work a:
CREATE TABLE ...
COPY ... FROM ...
CREATE INDEX ...
Does this bug occure only during inserts.
If the bug can't be fixed for 6.1 then he should be documented.
(Any chance to reproduce it in a regression test?)
Thanks anyway for responding.
Bye!
