More Rule creation problems (and nowhere near 8K) - Mailing list pgsql-general

Hi,

I am having a problem trying to create a rule on a view and keep getting

ERROR:  DefineQueryRewrite: rule plan string too big.


I've looked though the mailing list and docs and have seen mentions that
the limit of a rule is 8192 characters.  The rule (see below) is no more
than 600 characters as it is and the error still appears even when all the
whitespace is removed.

Is this correct and if so what is the actual limit for the length of a
rule?

I am currently using PostgreSQL 6.5.3.

Thanks.
