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).
