Guys,
Thank you for the info about this.
(we are using windows, as we don't have high loads usage of the database and we use then the same server to run our server applications).

Vincent.

Hi,
I'm using Postgresql 9.1.3 x64 on Windows 2008,
I'm doing reliability tests and effects and consequences of a server
power failure.

If you're looking to test for reliability and bugginess, I'd highly
suggest testing against the latest minor version of 9.1.5.

If reliability of interest, why is OP using Windows?

FWIW, my Win2k8 server has been rock solid since installation, with only *extremely* infrequent reboots for patches as few of the issues patched are network-exploitable.

These days Windows is a rather solid platform. It still weirds me out, but that's how it is. I've had more stability issues on my Linux servers lately (though that's significantly to do with some of the cheap and nasty hardware they're on).
