AFAICS, the only non-index-related occurrence of that error message
is in PageRepairFragmentation, which is invoked by VACUUM. I'd say
it indicates a real problem and you shouldn't ignore it. You might
try using pg_filedump or some such to examine the table and see if
there's anything obvious about what happened to the corrupted page.
i'm not familiar with this utility.
i can of course find it using google, but how do i check what is wrong?
i am even willing to upload the dump file, but with 4 milion records in table, it is going to be rather large...
pg_relation_size says that the table is about 3g i size
