What is the best practice to use postgresql with storage. Depends on your workload. My workload has a high number of DELETE statements with a relatively small total set size of recurring SELECT statements, therefore the buffer cache gets filled quickly and reads rarely touch disk, though the disks stays busy from the DELETES. In general, throw as much as you can at the disks unless the budget prevents your from doing so. Also, watch out for cheap three disk RAID-5 arrays. There's a crop of low end servers that have these. Serious trouble. > 2. Which are the files and folders we can keep it in storage. The postgresql installation manual documents the location of a cluster on disk. -lee -- Sent via pgsql-admin mailing list (pgsql-admin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-admin
