Yeah, the results shown in this thread are not very good :-(. I'm suspicious that the results are basically I/O-bound in your environment. There might be some value in the cached-initdb-tree solution for slower, more CPU-bound machines, but cutting out the regprocin overhead would probably do just as much good there. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
