Since Cygwin is an emulation layer running on Windows, performance of PostgreSQL + Cygwin isn't comparable to a pure *nix environment. For instance, above 50 concurrent connections, Cygwin starts getting unstable which is why we hard code a conneciton limit in our Windows version of Mammoth PosgreSQL. For this reason, PostgreSQL + Cygwin is typically used in development or low-load environments. It's still usuable, just not as scalable as a pure linux/unix solution. -- Best, Al Hulaton | Sr. Account Engineer | Command Prompt, Inc. 503.222.2783 | [EMAIL PROTECTED] Home of Mammoth PostgreSQL and 'Practical PostgreSQL' Managed PostgreSQL, Linux services and consulting Read and Search O'Reilly's 'Practical PostgreSQL' at http://www.commandprompt.com ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 1: subscribe and unsubscribe commands go to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
