My universe is Debian bound... so I even don't know if there is a *nix version of the tuning wizard. I'd consider it a quite useful tool even for "marketing" purposes on Linux too. Bad performance without tuning is a common thread here. I really didn't have time to investigate about the debugger, I'd expect that on Windows it "just works". While many things on *nix just work, debugging pg functions on Linux is not one of those. As you may have guessed my definition of "just works" in not that different from "aptitude install". I still have to find an howto for installing edb in Debian. Could it be packaged for Debian if there were resources? > It's pitched as a ''get you started" tool.
