Hi :
Saw this post on BUGS mailing list :

Under normal circumstances, there's no need to vacuum
template1 right? Its quite difficult to imagine XID
wraparound problems occuring in template1. I can't think
how can 4 billion transactions occur in template1 if
template1 is just used as a template in creating a new
database.
Am I missing something here?
Thank you very much,
ludwig lim
