Manual: http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.0/static/runtime-config-wal.html#RUNTIME-CONFIG-WAL-SETTINGS Recent discussion: http://www.facebook.com/notes/mysql-at-facebook/group-commit-in-postgresql/465781235932 It is my understanding that group commit in PG works without the commit_delay or commit_siblings being enabled. For many people coming from other databases, the existence of these GUC seems to suggest that group commit does not work without the being enabled. Are these setting useful, and if so how should they be tuned? If they are generally are not useful, should these settings be removed? -- Rob Wultsch wultsch@xxxxxxxxx -- Sent via pgsql-performance mailing list (pgsql-performance@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-performance
