Re: In memory Database for postgres

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



In my opinion very nice solution is building part of PostgreSQL
database in memory - below it is instruction how to build PostgreSQL
schema in memory in Linux. I tested this with my ROLAP solution for
recalculation MOLAP cubes in memory and then join with master cube
(this speeds up proces about 10 times!!! - but in other solution may
be different).

In grub (or other bootloader) you must declare ramdisk and then in OS:

mke2fs /dev/ram0
mkdir /mnt/ram0
mount /dev/ram0 /mnt/ram0
mkdir /mnt/ram0/pgspace

chown postgres:postgres /mnt/ram0/pgsapce

The "/mnt/ram0/pgsapce" folder must be empty (ERROR:  directory
"/mnt/ram0" is not empty)

And  then you may create tables (in this schema of course) and write to them.

Of course you must delete schema before shutdown PostgreSQL and OS - I
dont't now how resolve problem with error when the schema was not
deleted? - I have no time to think about it maybe anybody know how to
restore db when the in memory schema was damaged?
