Yes, I read that page and saw your name in the history of the page. But because of lacking test results and further information, I couldn't derive to any solution from claims written there. At least, would you mind giving some more details about below test factors: - Which PostgreSQL version did you use? (Assuming you did appropriate postgresql.conf configurations.) Operating system, file system, etc.? - What was the system specifications of the machines in the cluster? (Particularly network architecture comes to mind.) - What sort of tests did you apply and in which ones you faced serious bottlenecks? - What was the reason of the occured bottlenecks? (Memory access over network, which directly refers to raw network traffic?) If you did any monitoring, what were the other unhealthy statistics (suspicious changes) occured during tests? > I hope you find that article useful in starting your own > experiment.

A project with a dead main page (see http://openssi.org) doesn't smell good to me. Are there any alive support in the mailing lists? Regards.
