One of our systems currently has a mixture of PG 8.4 shards running on Ubuntu 10.04 (2.6 kernel) and PG 9.1 shards running on Ubuntu 12.04 (3.2 kernel). Load & cpu utilization (per 'top') are comparable. Shards have 64GB of RAM, shared_buffers=3GB, 60 active connections. Another production PG 9.1 system with shared_buffers=5GB also seems fine. Old load graphs show the load is comparable from when it was running Ubuntu 10.04. My big systems are still all on Ubuntu 10.04 (cut over in January I expect). -- Stuart Bishop <stuart@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> http://www.stuartbishop.net/ -- Sent via pgsql-performance mailing list (pgsql-performance@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-performance
