> > I saw some similar results comparing 9.0 and 9.2 pgbench tests. My tests were on a VM, but on a dedicate host/hardware with no other VM's running on it to minimize variables. I didn't have a lot of time to dig into it, but I do recall seeing more lock contention on updates on the 9.2 instance though. Ah, good point. At that scale, Colin's test is mostly a contention test. There's something there worth investigating, but it's not a realistic use case. Colin, please try your pgbench tests with -s 100. -- Josh Berkus PostgreSQL Experts Inc. http://pgexperts.com -- Sent via pgsql-performance mailing list (pgsql-performance@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-performance
