I appreciate it! Perhaps it is worth mentioning that the server had
some issues with the linux md raid a while back. Two disks failed in
quick succession and some data was corrupted. Those disks have been
replaced and the RAID has been fine ever since. The database cluster
was recreated from scratch after that, from backups of a few months
before the disks started misbehaving. This is when that table was
created with pg_restore. There were no issues with the restore, and the
backup was from a few months before the disk issue, so I don't suspect
corruption in the backup.
