Hi Everybody,
I was trying to see how many inserts per seconds my application could
handle on various machines.
I read that postgres does have issues with MP Xeon (costly context
switching). But I still think that with fsync=on 65 seconds is
ridiculous.
CPU is unlikely your bottleneck.. You failed to mention anything about
your I/O setup. More details in this regard will net you better
responses. However, an archive search for insert performance will
probably be worthwhile, since this type of question is repeated about
once a month.
He also fails to mention if he is doing the inserts one at a time or as
batch.
