During some exercises, one thing I noticed is I need to change the configuration of the system to house pgsql_tmp on a host partition instead of the drive array... that will get me a little more speed... is this controlled via a .conf file or pgamin? > You can try setting temp_tablespaces in your postgreqsl.conf file to use a tablespace defined over another part of your disk subsytem. Eg. create tablespace some_tablespace location '/some/path'; temp_tablespaces = 'some_tablespace'; Then reload your postgresql.conf file. Not sure if it's going to help you or not, though. -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
