Nice machine.

Two things: you did tune postgresql a bit, at least increasing the
shared buffers to several hundred MB, right?

Secondly, you can get much more information about what's going on by
logging into the DB and doing:

select * from pg_stat_activity;

Then you can see what it's doing. IIRC it's not unusual for loading a
whole days diff to take several hours. If you're really worried, use
strace to attach to the process and verify it's not doing anything (it
should be reading/writing like crazy).

Hope this helps,
