Is there a general performance improvement from 7 to 8? What about
reliability improvements?
For how long is the 7.x branch going to be under maintenance and
development (by the community, not be Red Hat)? Is there even a time
frame?
Again, any thoughts appreciated.
Use the latest stable from the PostgreSQL community. If you have
management that wants "Supported releases"
get the MammothPostgreSQL RPMS over at http://www.mammothpostgresql.org
as they are supported by CMD (my company) .
