As a result of my recent encounter with table bloat and other tuning issues I've been running into, I'm looking for a good resource for improving my tuning skills. My sysadmin ran into the following book: PostgreSQL 9.0 High Performance, by Gregory Smith, ISBN 184951030X http://amzn.com/184951030X Which covers versions 8.1 through 9. Any opinions on this book? Other suggestions? Thank you, Herouth
I bought this when it first came out. I bought the pdf version directly from Packt bundled with the PostgreSQL 9 Admin Cookbook for an amazingly low price.
I doubt you'll find a better book resource for recent versions of PostgreSQL. Both are well and clearly written, and cover a lot of ground in great detail.
Greg Smith has helped me and countless others on this and the Performance list and he is truly an authoritative resource.
