Hello again,
thanks for all the quick replies.
It seems i wasn't entirely correct on my previous post, i've mixed up
some times/numbers.
Below the correct numbers
MSSQL: SELECT COUNT(*) from JOIN (without insert) 17 minutes
PostgreSQL: SELECT COUNT(*) from JOIN (without insert) 33 minutes
PostgreSQL: complete query 55 minutes
The part i'm really troubled with is the difference in performance for
the select part. Which takes twice as long on PostgreSQL even though it
has a better server then MSSQL.
Changed i've made to postgressql.conf
work_mem = 524288 (1GB, results in out of memory error)
checkpoints_segments = 256
checkpoints_timeout = 3600
checkpoints_warning = 0
I've ran the complete 'explain analyse query' twice. First with
pgsql_tmp on the same disk, then again with pgsql_tmp on a seperate disk.

A lot of difference in performance. 55 minutes to 42 minutes.
I've ran the 'select count(*) from JOIN' to see the difference on that
part.

A lot of improvement also in the select count: 33 minutes vs 10 minutes.
To us, the speeds are good. Very happy with the performance increase on
that select with join, since 90% of the queries are SELECT based.
The query results in 7551616 records, so that's about 4500 inserts per
second. I'm not sure if that is fast or not. Any further tips would be
welcome.
Thanks everyone.
Nicky
