Hi,

I have table with size ~35 MB, it has several indexes and couple of them are
well over 500 MB in size (they are indexes with 3-4 columns involved, with
datatypes like varchar, int4 , timestamp, boolean).
Database is VACUUMed nightly, version is 7.2.4 (cant upgrade to newest
version at the moment). Are these
index sizes indicating some problems with our Postgres server?
