Loading the DB is going to be CPU-bound (on a single) core, unless your disks really suck, which they don't. Most of the time will be spent building indexes. I don't know offhand why the queries are slower, though, unless you're not getting as much cached before testing as on the older box. -- Sent via pgsql-performance mailing list (pgsql-performance@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-performance
