Another frequent suggestion is to put the xlog on a separate device. I
tried this, and, for a given number of disks, it appears to be
counter-productive. A RAID5 of 5 disks holding both logs and data is
about 15% faster than a RAID5 of 3 disks with the data, and a mirror of
two disks holding the xlog.
Try simply a seperate partition on the same device with a different
filesystem (ext2).
