Hi all,

I've tried to insert a record into a table, which contains only one
column(text),
through ODBC, the record contains a 99,999,999 spaces. I can put it into
table
without problem, but when I executed "select * from tablename" at the PSQL
prompt, miserably PSQL went segmentation fault. :-(

My question is, isn't the length of `text' type theoretically unlimited? How
come
PSQL crashes?
(Is this a PSQL problem? If so, what's its limitation then?)

Thanks a lot,

Frankie
