I see a very low performance and high context switches on our

You can't expect any different with more clients than scaling factor :-(.

Argh :) I copy'n pasted from previous message.

I still wondering with very poor performance of my server. Moving
pgdata to RAID6 helped - about 600 tps. Then, I moved pg_xlog to separate
disk and got strange error messages

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ time pgbench  -c 10  -t 3000 pgbench
starting vacuum...end.
Client 0 aborted in state 8: ERROR:  integer out of range
Client 7 aborted in state 8: ERROR:  integer out of range

dropdb,createdb helped, but performance is about 160 tps.

Low-end AMD64 with SATA disks gives me ~400 tps in spite of
disks on itanium2 faster ( 80MB/sec ) than on AMD64 (60MB/sec).
