That seems quite unlikely, and you've surely provided no details that would help identify any such problem. My own first guess is that the newer install was somehow built with debugging assertions enabled (configure's --enable-cassert option). Those are pretty heavyweight and could possibly account for this. A second guess is that you were relying on JIT compilation and the newer install somehow omitted that (failed to use --with-llvm). Anyway, I'd start by comparing the output of pg_config from both installs. regards, tom lane
