Berner,
First, I've corrected you e-mail so that it goes to the list, and not to
me directly.
I use my PostgreSQL 8.0.4 as Catalogue-Database for Bacula.
Bacula is a Backupsoftware.
Yes. The lead contributor to Bacula is a active PostgreSQL project
participant; I'll see if he'll look into your issue.
When I backing up System (lot of very small Files) then PostgreSQL seams to by
the bottleneck by inserting Catalogueinformation of every single File.
The System on which Postgres runs is a Sun Solaris 10 Server on a Sun Fire V240
with 1GB RAM, 1CPU (SUNW,UltraSPARC-IIIi at 1.3GHz), 2 Ultra SCSI-3 Disks 73GB
at 10k RPM which are in Raid1 (Solaris Softraid).
Can someone gif me a hint for compiling PostgreSQL or configuring the Database.
fsync is already disabled..
This is a bad idea if you care about your database.
So, PostgreSQL 8.1 is now official supported by Sun and ships with
Solaris 10 update 2 or later. It is recommended that you use that
rather and an out-of-date version. Second, see

TIP 2: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster
