Tough to say without benchmarking, but if you have a lot of small databases that easily fit in RAM, and a lot of concurrent connections, I would think you'd want to spend your hardware $ on maximizing the number of cores. But there are many in this forum who have much more experience with these things than me, so take that with a grain of salt... (You might also want to look at consolidating some of those databases - maybe use one database with multiple schemas - that would probably help performance significantly.) ...Robert -- Sent via pgsql-performance mailing list (pgsql-performance@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-performance
