Also I noticed this type of messages on the mserver5 console when piping records through the mclient (over 1million records) . It seems that the mclient is quiet instable (cf my post about "COPY, terminating connection" few months ago).

The only thing I was able to do against that; more swap for the job. And of course the standard stuff as loading CSV files, preferably no indices on the table you are loading huge amounts of data to.
