Hello,

I had the distinct displeasure of staying up entirely too late with a
customer this week because they upgraded to 12.04 and immediately
experienced a huge performance regression. In the process they also upgraded
to PostgreSQL 9.1 from 8.4. There were a lot of knobs to change/fix/modify

results:

I've since heard that 3.4 also fixes this issue as well.

What are you using for your IO on these boxes?

I was able to demonstrate it over iSCSI to a Nimble Storage SAN as well as DAS with 2 drive RAID 1 for xlogs and 8 drive RAID 10 for data (DL385 G7).
