I have a server, with Postgres, and a squid running. The squid is a real
CPU-mem eater, and in one of the inserts to the DB, I got this on the log
file and then the postmaster died.
/dbs/postgres/bin/postmaster: reaping dead processes...
/dbs/postgres/bin/postmaster: CleanupProc: pid 27317 exited with status 0

CheckPoint Data Base: fork failed: Not enough space

I'm on Postgresql-7.1beta5 on Solaris 7, compiled with gcc.
I think today we are going to reconfigure the squid so it doesn't eat so much
mem (other things on that server don't work good either).
Any idea on this? I think the the postmaster shouldn't die, at least it's
what I first thought.
