The hardware is an IBM xSeries 340 with a single Xeon Pentium IV 2.40GHz processor with dual mirrored SCSI disks. The OS is Redhat Linux 7.3 with a Linux 2.4.18 SMP kernel (the CPU supports hyperthreading). PostgreSQL binaries were precompiled. PostgreSQL 7.2.1 version is a redhat build shippping with Redhat Linux 7.3. PostgresQL 7.2.4 and 7.3.2 binaries were directly downloaded from the ftp mirrors.
