I'm considering using Postgresql for an application which could very likely require a database to grow up to about 1TB in size.

1. Is this possible with Postresql on Linux?

2. Is it possible for database tables to span files on more than one disk partition? I'm aware that it splits files into 2GB chunks automatically, but is it possible for these files to reside on more than one partition?

3. What's the biggest known database currently running on Postgresql?

Thanks for your help!

Graham.
