Re: 8.3 beta 4 crash on windows 2003 64-bit

Andrew,

As to how it was built: I was under the impression that the 8.3 release
is build using MSVSC?

I was keen to give it a try to see if this version would work more
optimally on windows as the pg instance (8.2.5) I run normally suffers
from serious high pages/sec (by looking at perfmon on windows) slowing
the whole thing down (it's connected to a SAN on a 4Gb card and holds >
80 disks...so file I/O should not be the bottleneck).

Now a quick restore back to 8.2.5...

From the postgresql ftp server. I initially wanted to download beta3,
but spotted beta4 so I gave that a go

ftp.postgresql.org

/pub/binary/v8.3beta4/win32/

Where did you get the binary from? How was it built?
