C= What file system are you using? Unlike BigDBMS, pg does not have its own native one, so you have to choose the one that best suits your needs. For update heavy applications involving lots of small updates jfs and XFS should both be seriously considered.

Actually it has been suggested that a combination of ext2 (for WAL) and
ext3 (for data, with data journalling disabled) is a good performer.
AFAIK you don't want the overhead of journalling for the WAL partition.

I'm curious as to why ext3 for data with journalling disabled? Would that not be the same as ext2?
