Going to XLDB

Folks,

I'm attending Stanford's XLDB[1] (eXtremely Large Databases) conference as
the PostgreSQL representative for the first time.  This will be cool.

Send me any huge PostgreSQL data warehouse war stories which you have.

It's interesting, but I contacted with XLDB people independently a week ago.
We have astronomical DB about 6 TB size and in a 2-3 year expect
300-400 TB from our future telescope mounted on ISS.
That's why I'm interested in joining XLDB development.

Yeah, they don't have any funds for attendee travel, though.  That's why
I'm going; I can drive there.

Please forward to me any commentary you have for the meeting, and maybe
more detail about the astronomical DB.
