What version of PostgreSQL? (8.1 is better than 8.0 is much better than 7.4.)
Have you remembered to turn HT off? Have you considered Opterons instead of
Xeons? (The Xeons generally scale bad with PostgreSQL.) What kind of queries
Could you point out to some more detailed reading on why Xeons are
poorer choice than Opterons when used with PostgreSQL?
It isn't just PostgreSQL. It is any database. Opterons can move memory
and whole lot faster then Xeons.
