Well, just keep in mind when tuning that your calculations should be based on *available* RAM, meaning RAM not used by Apache or the JVM. With that many concurrent requests, you'll want to be *very* conservative with sort_mem; I might stick to the default of 1024 if I were you, or even lower it to 512k. -- Josh Berkus Aglio Database Solutions San Francisco ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 4: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster
