If the active portion of your database is actually small enough that it fits in the OS cache, I recommend: seq_page_cost = 0.1 random_page_cost = 0.1 cpu_tuple_cost = 0.05 > I plan to increase various parameters as follow: > shared_buffers = 512MB > temp_buffers = 16MB > work_mem = 32MB > wal_buffers = 16MB > checkpoint_segments = 32 > effective_cache_size = 2560MB > default_statistics_target = 500 > autovacuum_vacuum_scale_factor = 0.05 > autovacuum_analyze_scale_factor = 0.025 You could probably go a little higher on work_mem and effective_cache_size. I would leave default_statistics_target alone unless you see a lot of estimates which are off by more than an order of magnitude. Even then, it is often better to set a higher value for a few individual columns than for everything. Remember that this setting has no effect until you reload the configuration and then VACUUM. -Kevin -- Sent via pgsql-performance mailing list (pgsql-performance@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-performance
