There are any number of anecdotal reports of massive speed improvements between 7.x and various 8.x versions. Not to mention a few feature improvements. Now it could well be that none of those affect the OP but 8.3 will have the particular shade of magic pixie dust his queries need. But it seems at least as likely that 8.3 will be no significant improvement over 8.2 for him. Without any real details about his app, you can't call it either way. I tend to agree with Erik that if you have a window now to upgrade off of 7.x, you should do it, rather than waiting for the next release. regards, tom lane
