I have just installed redhat linux 9 which ships with Pg 7.3.2. Pg has to be setup so that data inserts (blobs) should be able to handle at least 8M at a time. The machine has two P III 933MHz CPU's, 1.128G RAM (512M*2 + 128M), and a 36 Gig hd with 1 Gig swap and 3 equal size ext3 partitions. What would be the recomended setup for good performance considering that the db will have about 15 users for 9 hours in a day, and about 10 or so users throughout the day who wont be conistenly using the db.
It doesn't sound like a particlarly heavy loading to me. I'd start off with something like
shared_buffers = 2000 sort_mem = 1024 max_coonections = 100
and see how it performs under normal business loading.
