As others have said, it is nearly impossible for postgres to be usable in
any environment with the bug you reported, and yet it is. It is 99.9999 %
likely the bug is somewhere else. You have provided no reproduction steps
as well, so no action could even be taken if it were an issue. This is not
a customer support channel with Salad as well. If you wish to have that
type of support, you may wish to contact one of the many companies that
provide support for postgresql.
