I'm upgrading a rather large 6.5 installation (~ 4GB data) this weekend, and
would like some input on whether I should upgrade to 7.0.3 or to 7.1 beta.

I've used 7.0.3 on other less-loaded systems without problems so I'm
inclined to go with that. OTOH, due to the size of the data and the nature
of the application, I'd like to avoid a second pg_dump/initdb/restore when
we transfer to 7.1.

Any ideas or tips to smooth the transition?

Brian
