Excuse for my stupid question, Joshua, but how do you make a PostgreSQL Cluster ??? I'm really interesting about this solution ...1. With the OS? Will it crash?
See above. And actually if you really did have a situation where 10,000 users accessed the site at the exact same time you would need a pretty large cluster to handle it... regardless of PostgreSQL.
You seem to misunderstand. In postgresql, a database installation is called as cluster. When you initdb, it initializes a database area where more than one databases can be created. Since there are more than one databases, such an installation is called as database cluster.
It is not like a beowulf cluster..:-)
