Hamish,

   Ah, so. Good to know. I hope no project of mine has a single table with
that many vector nodes.

   I'm not in this for fun, so if I don't need to learn postgis I won't.

   Guess I need to look at the v.db.* modules to learn how to have GRASS see
the well log data in the postgres table and import them to the project
directory.

Many thanks,
