Peter, you beat me to the punch. I was just about to say "Having read
the referenced message I thought I would add that we never delete from
this table." In this particular case it was written to record by
record, in a previous execution and at the time of the error it was only
being read. (In case you've been following, the failed execution would
have added ~1M "segments", each which references an entry in the gin'd
table "probandsets" - but like a rookie I'm looking up each
probandset(2^16) individually. Re-working that NOW.)
