I have migrated a database from MS SQL to a postgresSQL database, but when running it, the results are very slow (and unusable) which is the only reason we don't entirely move to postgresSQL. The problem is that there are many nested views which normally join tables by using two fields, one character and other integer. The biggest table has about 300k records (isn't it too little for having performance problems?) What could be the poor performance reason? the server is a dual itanium (intel 64bits) processor with 6Gb of RAM and a 36Gb Raid 5 scsi hdds of 15k rpm. If someone has the time and wants to check the structure, I have a copy of everything at http://www.micredito.com.sv/.carlos/materiales.sql.bz2 it is a pgsqldump made with postgres 7.4 Thanks in advance for your help.
