So, you have table X - it has 2M rows (say, 0.5 GB) in the first file
(along with all the other tables). The 2GB limit is hit, more data is
added. 0.7 GB is added to table X - these records go into a new
database file - the table is split in two - you have 2 "extents" of
2GB with X split 0.5 - in extent1, 0.7 in extent2. All mixed up with
other tables as well!
That was the architectural flaw to which I was referring. Nothing to
do with PG
You're gonna be in for a very rude surprise after adding 1GB of data to a PG table...
