Sidnei, In principle, yes, postgres can do quite well (we use 2 CPU boxes with 2 gigs of RAM for most of our production servers), but a lot would depened on what sort of use your database gets -- all read and bulk updates ? Or lots of updates ? Are the queries complex ? etc., etc. How fast are the disk drives, and how many of them are ?
If you give people a bit more information you'll get more useful answers. Greg Williamson DBA GlobeXplorer LLC -----Original Message----- From: BASEI, Sidnei R.
